  • Using mountain stones to create garden borders is a natural looking method that suits a Japanese Style Garden. Often garden beds are edged up with gravel or moss and sometimes mondo grass, but unless you use subsurface barriers, the foliage will start growing out of the gravel or the gravel will wash into your garden.
    Stones create a riverbed-like border. Other methods may include granite slabs and roof tiles.
    In this episode, we add mountain stones to several garden beds at a medical clinic facility.

    Я в восторге от японских садов!
    Я в восторге от ваших стен из
    красивых и не обработанных
    камней ! Они неповторимы !
    К моему большому сожалению
    от моего города до ближайшего
    гранитного карьера более 1500 км.

    What I really like about this channel is that you work in a regular Japanese job. Most of the westerners on UA-cam either work as English language teachers or remotely for western companies.
    How do you fit in with your coworkers? Are there differences in working compared to Australia?

      Luckily, a few of my cow workers speak English. The companies that often hire foreigners, provide similar working conditions to the ones we’re used to. Japanese companies demand a lot more from their workers. I’ve been lucky enough to negotiate the terms of my employment, however salaries are quite low.

    As a geologist working in a region with one of the world's oldest bedrock I find the Japanese rocks beautifully alien.
    They are so young! And so soft!
    River rocks here are way more round and have a smooth finish instead of the volcanic corse structure of more easily eroded japanese rocks. Rocks with the shape seen in the video would here be seen as coming from the till.
    But in the end, all rocks get more beautiful wet

    Love the wall you're building in your own garden Blair. Must have inherited your artistic flair from your Mum eh ? I love the dry stone walling we have up here in Yorkshire too.

    Thanks for sharing these techniques with stones/rocks. I lived in Japan for many years and now in my retirement years am developing a sort of Japanese garden. I love the elements of simplicity and peace that seem to flow from the Japanese style of garden. I live in the pacific northwest and am trying to incorporate the natural plants such as salad and ferns within my garden. I would appreciate any suggestions you may have.

    I just don’t understand the need for cementing the stones...where are they going to go?

    Why cement the stones in place? Are they going somewhere?

    • @retro000
      @retro000 Рік тому +1

      Not a bad idea logically to stop soil erosion and run off,keeps water logged. 😅

    • @retro000

      Also keeps a clean line,no pesky weeds growing inbetween

    Not a fan of cementing stones in place. Afraid someone will steal them?
