With a little pre-planning, you can easily work in the three key concepts for a Japanese inspired garden\u2026<\/p>\n<p><b>Balance<br \/>\n<\/b>Balance and the elements are at the very core of Japanese garden design.

Japan is well-known for its artful practice of Niwaki (sculpting trees). These plants make a statement by providing a central focus for any Japanese garden and will help balance the varying elements of your garden theme. The <a title=\"Japanese Holly Cloud Trees (Ilex Crenata)\" href=\"https:\/\/www.paramountplants.co.uk\/plant\/cloud\/ilex-crenata-cloud-trees.html\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Japanese Holly Cloud Trees<\/span><\/a>, if purchased as a specimen tree (upwards of 20 years old) are very easy to look after, only requiring an occasional trim, once or twice per year.<\/p>\n<p><b>Shade<br \/>\n<\/b>Shade and height is very important to the oriental garden. There is nothing quite as beautiful as sun-dappled plants and pathways beneath taller trees.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Bamboo\" href=\"https:\/\/www.paramountplants.co.uk\/bamboo.html\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Bamboo<\/span><\/a> is not only an essential building material in Asia; it is one of the key materials used in Asian gardens. Bamboo is often used to form a hedge which is not too dense, with elegant shaped foliage making it easy for light to spill through. As the wind blows through the Bamboo leaves, calm rustling sounds are made, providing a tranquil soundtrack for your garden.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Japanese Acers\" href=\"https:\/\/www.paramountplants.co.uk\/japanese-acers.html\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Japanese Acers<\/span><\/a>, also known as the <a title=\"Japanese Maple\" href=\"https:\/\/www.paramountplants.co.uk\/japanese-acers.html\">Japanese Maple<\/a>, are a family of deciduous ornamental trees, which are grown for their stunning foliage and delicate forms.
