Nitobe Memorial Garden: History and Development (Reprinted)
Neill, J. W. 1970. Nitobe Memorial Garden: History and Development. Davidsonia. 1(2):10-15
It has been said that a garden in Japan is a representation of the scenery of the country, though it is essentially a Japanese representation. Although it is an interpretation of nature, it is not intended to be a realistic reproduction. The significance of this form of art is best understood by the Japanese who by tradition have inherited an appreciation and enjoyment of nature as expressed not only in the garden but also in their arts and many of their customs.
Was it possible, then, to have a successful Japanese Garden in Canada?
