Strong is the influence resulting from the gardens design of the 'Alhambra in Granada and of the' Alcazar in Seville, and equally strong is the allure of feelings related to perfumes, such as rosemary, rock rose, broom, pistachio, strawberry: these and other species, combined with water features, are the fundamental elements of this garden style. The right outlook, the combinations of vibrant colors and natural materials characterize the choice of a unique and unmistakable.
The stunningly beautiful Passage is where garden design ideas inspired by ancient Japanese Tea Gardens. The Passage garden ideas came from the practicing Buddhist owners, and the design was a collaborative effort from landscape contractor and architect, and different artists to create a spiritual retreat to accommodate everyday functions as well as a space in which to be nurtured and find rest and peace.
The Passage is a contemporary interpretation of an ancient garden design. The garden is on a wooded, 10-acre lot in New England, Massachusetts, on which an existing house stood for about 20 years. An addition was put on the main house, a private temple was turned into a guest house, and a connecting bridge was built between a new bedroom and the main entrance.
The idea behind “roji” (or “passageway”), an ancient tea garden, is that the "garden was designed not to be viewed from a single location, but as a series of experiences along a path leading to the tea ceremony." It can be appreciated from many locations – not just looking into the backyard from a kitchen window, as we do.
The viewing areas in The Passage include a parking court and entry garden with a curving fieldstone wall that emerges from the woods, a steam garden, a courtyard garden, perennial borders, a woodland path, and a meditation circle. A koi pond, a soaking tub, a ceremonial planter, water basins that collect rain water, an outdoor shower that doubles as a lantern, and a stone path all add to the ancient appeal of The Passage.
At the beginning of the path, at the property entrance, there is a circular parking lot that is enclosed in a curving fieldstone wall. It repeats the bowl shape of the nearby kettle hole.
Similarely, at the end of the path, there is Meditation Circle, "a small terrace overlooking the woods, where the third Tsukubai - the Woodland Bowl - rests." "Sitting on the rim of the vast kettle hole, one is consumed by nature, and moves effortlessly from the worldly to the spiritual."

Also at the entry, is the first of three Tsukubai - the Raincatcher - a cast concrete water feature which collects falling water from the roof. "Water overflows from the Raincatcher into a copper ring filled with washed stones."

Growing them in pots allows them to be brought close to the house during the coldest months of the year. (There are some reasonably mature Phoenix canariensis planted in the ground and thriving in the local neighbourhood).
Directly behind the right hand pot, next to the step are a group of money trees/jade plants (crassula ovata). As we travel up the steps a Melianthus major . Further along an olive tree (olea europaea). In front of the olive tree Thalia Dealbata grows out of the formal pond. Just behind the exotic patio garden is cyperus papyrus, seed grown annually, growing in a large terracotta pot.
The right hand corner contains an Arizona cypress (a pre existing plant) which complements the other blue green foliage of the drought tolerant exotics.
The screening to the rear is a phyllostachys nigra hedge (black bamboo) . This plant does receive some watering other than rain. These exotic patio garden is also constructed so that it drains into the bamboo. All of the plant on this exotic patio garden is a tropically plants.
