A Japanese Meditation Garden

An Illinois woman's Japanese garden demonstrates how seemingly simple techniques and thoughtful design can help you relax and let go of stress.

Easy-to-grow plants include ornamental grasses, evergreens and deciduous trees such as Japanese maples. Pictured: White fir Abies concolor 'Select'.
