The Memphis Botanic Garden is kicking off spring with events that spread Japanese culture.

Upcoming events include a Japanese landscape on May 2-4 where three different workshops will be given followed by a candlelight dinner and tour on May 6.

The Japanese landscape is a workshop that gives gardeners insight on how to maintain a garden.

Featured speakers include Dr. David Slawson, author of Secret Teachings in the Art of Japanese Gardens and John Powell, a garden builder and pruning specialist.

This event will also include a screening and discussion of a new film: Evoking Native Landscape Using Japanese Garden Principles.

Gina Harris, director of education at Memphis Botanic Garden said they partnered with the Japan American Society of Tennessee for their Japanese cultured events.
