The Asian Garden is a lovely space tucked into a section of the Memphis Botanic Gardens close to the new Urban Home Garden.
and back to the entrance of this area:
It's a peaceful space.

Why "Divers and Sundry"?
Because this blog does not consist of a single focus topic I chose the name Divers and Sundry where "Divers" means being of many and various kinds, and "Sundry" means consisting of a haphazard assortment of different kinds.

It certainly looks tranquil there. And not another person in sight to distract from the view or the tranquility. This is a LOVELY garden.
ReplyDeleteThere were a decent number of people there, just not so many that it made it difficult to take photos :) My favorite interaction took place in a family group of man, woman, and 3 young teens:
DeleteMan: I'd forgotten how big this place is.
Woman: Yes, but if you want to walk...
Man: [shakes head, looks away, sighs]
lol!
This looks like a beautiful place to walk. And I love Asian art. Hopefully it wasn't too hot when you went there. It's been very hot here in CT, so I imagine it's been even worse in TN. :-(
ReplyDeleteIt's hot here with highs in the 90s and humid. I was soaking wet when I got home, but I enjoy the heat. It's cold I have trouble with.
DeleteBeautiful garden-thank you for sharing
ReplyDeleteI always enjoy it during every season :)
DeletePretty!
ReplyDelete--a Pal
It's a small area, but it's definitely pretty :)
DeleteThis area is beautiful too. And I love the tall bamboo. It would never grow that tall here and I remember when we saw tall bamboo in Japan. I bet it is a relaxing and a gorgeous place to walk through. Thanks for taking us for a walk. I enjoyed it. Hugs-Erika
ReplyDeleteWe grow our own bamboo here for the pandas at the zoo. It does get tall!
DeleteI love gardens like this, and always enjoy them all through the year. Valerie
ReplyDeleteYes, there's something here for every season.
DeleteLooks very peaceful. :)
ReplyDeleteIt is peaceful, and there's a bench so you can stay a while :)
