Shufunotomo Co., Ltd. will release "Creating a Natural Garden Even for Beginners" (written by Takayuki Hirai of Sekishoen) on Thursday, March 26, 2026.

The book is full of tips for creating a comfortable garden that incorporates seasonal trees and makes you want to stay forever. A "natural garden" allows you to enjoy the four seasons while staying at home: the budding in spring, the beauty of flowers and fresh greenery in early summer, the cool breeze blowing through the tree shade in summer, the autumn leaves that change color day by day, and the healing warmth of a sunny spot in winter.

Richly introducing examples of different types

Chapter 1, "Making Good Use of Small Spaces," and Chapter 2, "Turning Poorly Lit Areas into Beautiful Gardens," showcase numerous examples of creating beautiful gardens even in locations with less-than-ideal conditions. Having natural trees in your garden allows you to realize a life with nature.

Packed with tricks and tips unique to professional garden designers

In Chapter 3, "Changing Use and Image Through Renovation," and Chapter 4, "Gardens with Beautiful Seasonal Changes," you can find many hints from gardens filled with ideas only an experienced professional can provide, such as creating streams or ponds to make it easier to keep living creatures, or modernizing a garden inherited from ancestors.
