Japanese-Inspired Gardens
Japanese-inspired Garden, Thomaston
(2003)
This garden features over 20 species of
native plants. The fences are made from
native spirea brush with cedar posts.
This garden will be featured in Lynn Karlin
and Rebecca Sawyer-Fay's forthcoming
book, Gardens Maine Style, Act II.

This 2006 Cushing garden (above and below) was designed to resemble a small rock
quarry, typical in this part of Maine. We designed and supervised construction of the
Japanese-style screen house which slightly overhangs the pond.

We were honored to bring our tripod to help meticulously restore the original 1950s setting of
the stones at the sand garden with our good friend, Mary Roper, the head gardener.
