Japanese Garden Pond Planting Ideas

Ideas For Plants In And Around Japanese Garden Ponds

The plants used around this pond are classic and common for Japanese gardens and landscapes. The Black Pine and large Maple trees create an atmosphere that is unmistakably Japanese. While there is no other decor or cultural objects such as stone lanterns, bridges, or statues, it's still easy to recognize the theme of this garden right away.

As I always say about most gardens and landscape designs, plants can create the biggest part of the theme or atmosphere. Change the trees, flowers, pond plantings, and other vegetation and you can change the entire theme and style of the landscaping.
