Anecdote #9: Bamboo water fountains
Bamboo fountain is one of the Japanese garden elements. Unlike western water fountains, Japanese use bamboo to add tranquility and serenity. The length and diameter of the bamboo can vary, which can affect the sound and water floating. And, the design often blends with the surroundings and complement the other elements of the landscape.

I just love Magnolias, Amy. I think they are just a magnificent flower. I grew up with a Magnolia tree, and loved the pods as a child. We threw them and used them as “gentle weapons.” I wonder if children still do that! LOL!
