South Belfast Japanese Garden

It’s not often you get a client who asks you to design and build a Japanese garden. To create the style, we used timber deck boards to flow from their existing deck. This wooden path navigates its way through 48 tonnes of imported soil hills and finishes at a 4 metre square destination deck. Here you can view an original Japanese imported water feature, lantern and a Mourne granite gravel Karesansui dry landscape garden. The hills of soil are planted with various Japonica’s and classic Japanese garden favourites like acers, pines and bamboo’s. The best part of this garden, for me, is the client. We worked on their front garden in our first year of business and they came back to us 15 years later when they were ready to go East.
