Good book,
This review is from: Japanese Gardens in a Weekend: Projects for One, Two or Three Weekends (Paperback)
I'm not much of a gardener and it figures that I'd choose to want one of the more difficult types of gardens to design. This book presents different projects in an easy to understand format. It lists the supplies, types of plants and spells out how to carry out each project step by step. You may need other references too but this one is a good book to have. Good illustrations too.

This review is from: Japanese Gardens in a Weekend: Projects for 1, 2 or 3 Weekends (Hardcover)
A great run down on the essentials in a Japanese garden. From plants to design and bamboo. A great book for how-to water features and more. A great book.
