This private garden is located on the southern hillside of Mt. Yatsugatake. I really had been looking forward to visiting the garden.
Mr. and Mrs. T & K have been creating this stunning English garden for years by themselves. A ruin of stone wall, a garden pond, stone pavements, gate posts, steps etc. are his works.
Though roses had almost been over, many perennials such as catmint and clematis were so beautiful.

The garden was far more stunning than I expected, and Mr. and Mrs. T & K were really nice persons. In spite of weather forecast of rain, it was a nice day without rain and a unforgettable day for us.
Photographs of his garden can be seen on the site below.
