Behind the photo shown above, you will find a well grown Hydrangea quercifolia. Contrast of green and while and balance of two colors are the key note of this garden.

The other eye catching feature is Acanthus molis. Lage perenials may be difficult to grow in the small garden....

White garden is located at Marunouchi, the center of Tokyo financial district, at the site of the Tokyo head office of Daiwa Bank, Ltd.
Front yard garden at bank building is usually not very attractive. This garden is something special where you could enjoy the greens and glasses even at the winter season. Low maintenance garden featuring Acanthus molis and wild hydrangea are mostly perrenials species. The most arrative season of this garden is June to July where you could enjoy the Archanthus molis and wild hydrangea. Even if you miss this early summer, you will enjoy the mix of beautiful greens. This garden is recomended for the serious gardners.
