University Place Garden Tour Japanese Garden

Homeowner Carole Henderson will take you through a tour of her serene Japanese garden, which features an array of weeping Japanese maples, bamboo, variegated Japanese grass and different forms of statuaries and garden art. Get a look at her carefully pruned junipers. The Japanese call this niwaki, which means trimming trees into cloud shapes. These artistic forms serve as the focal points of her themed garden.
