Japan’s rock gardens reveal art, tranquility United Press International TOKYO — It is a garden without trees, without a blade of grass. There are only sand, peb bles, groupings of rocks in what seems an infinity of space. The focal point of virtually all Japanese gardens is the stone. People have been known to find an especially prized stone far from home, have it cut into manageable pieces and trans port it to the garden, to be reas sembled. Much of the stone is buried in the ground, so it appears to have been in the garden forever. The single stone is placed to be admired from various van tage points. After the stone, the rest is up to the gardener, making the arrangement fit the contours of his house, making it imitate na ture. At all costs, the owner avoids having too much in the garden. Even with a pond, a stone lan tern, bamboo trees, there is a feeling of space. “Everything superfluous to the total effect of the garden is discarded,” say Kiyoshi Seike, Noburo Kudo and David H. Angel in their book, “A Japanese Touch for Your Garden.” “The gardener’s design is complete when there is nothing more he can remove from the garden.” The Japanese also have boat ing gardens, pond gardens, flat gardens, tea gardens, happy gardens and dry gardens. The imperial gardens and boating gardens are vast. The nation that gave the world “ikebana,” the art of flow er arranging, also has perfected techniques for creating a garden in a small area, carving out room for tranquility in the bustle of modern-day Japan. Wealthier garden owners pipe in ice cold water to create miniature rivers, waterfalls and rapids. Bamboo stalks form fountains and sound boards for the running water. Arc Vou My Type?
