The Japanese Garden
Red leaves on the Japanese Maple Tree
Bamboo Forest
Across the bridge over the stream
Through more stands of bamboo.
There is a blue roofed tea house next to the koi pond.
The ubiquitous lily pads in the pond.
The goldfish were being coy, not wanting to be photographed. I was only partially successful in getting a picture of them. This picture looks more like a Monet painting.

Are you sure the goldfish weren't being 'koi'? (Sorry, couldn't resist :^)
Beautiful pictures!
Beautiful photos Willow! Love the Monet!
The pictures are very nice! Thanks for sharing!!
The header is you!! It fits very well!! I took my rose out and will play around more this week with other options.
That impressionistic watercolor is terrific! You could frame it!
I like seeing the bamboo as it is so different to anything here.
Maple i sstunning.
I love the coy/koi picture! Thanks for sharing with us -- what a lovely day :)
Lovely! I really favor the 'monet' picture! :o)
I enjoyed seeing all of your garden photos! I used to have my own small rose garden in a previous home. I miss the smell of it! My children were little toddlers and they would walk through and tell me the different smells of each kind of rose! The Japanese garden is so pretty too! I have always loved Japanese Maples for their red color. We also have a bamboo forest growing down the street from us! I read that it's invasive in this area, but I love how it looks. My daughter thinks we just need more Pandas in Pennsylvania!!
