Oriental Garden

Calm, balanced spaces inspired by classic Asian garden design.

Create a quiet, intentional landscape with the timeless balance of an Oriental-inspired garden—structure, texture, and year-round presence. This collection focuses on plants that deliver clean silhouettes, layered foliage, and calm color—perfect for Bay Area courtyards, entryways, side yards, and modern minimalist backyards.

Expect a curated mix of Japanese maples, sculptural conifers, refined shrubs, bamboo screening options, ferns, mossy-look groundcovers, and shade-friendly accents—chosen for their ability to look “designed” even with simple planting plans. Whether you’re building a Zen corner, framing a stone path, softening a fence line, or creating privacy without a bulky hedge, these plants are selected to bring order and serenity to the space.

Best for: courtyard gardens, entry statements, shade gardens, privacy screens, rock/stone features, and container-focused designs.

Frequently asked questions

1) What defines an “Oriental Garden” plant palette?
It’s a design-forward mix emphasizing structure, texture, and calm color—plants that look intentional year-round and pair beautifully with stone, gravel, wood, and minimalist hardscape.

2) Are these plants suitable for the San Francisco Bay Area?
Yes—this collection is curated for typical Bay Area conditions, including mild winters, dry summers, and many part-shade courtyards. Always check the individual product page for sun exposure and watering needs.

3) I have mostly shade—can I still achieve the look?
Absolutely. Many Oriental-style gardens rely on layered shade texture. Look for ferns and broadleaf evergreens, plus a few architectural accents for contrast.

4) What are the fastest ways to create privacy in this style?
Bamboo (where appropriate), narrow evergreens, and layered screening (tall + mid + low) create privacy that still feels light and refined.

5) Do you offer design / planting help?
Yes. If you want a cohesive plan (plant list, spacing, and layout), we can help you choose the right sizes and quantities for an Oriental-inspired look.

6) What if I’m not sure which cultivar/size to pick?
Start with your goal (feature tree vs. privacy vs. shade texture), then choose by mature size and sun exposure. If you share photos and approximate measurements, we can recommend a clean, balanced combination.
