Karesansui, or dry landscape gardening, is a traditional Japanese form of gardening that uses rocks, sand, and often moss to represent a landscape. Combining karesansui with plants can enhance the aesthetic and spiritual aspects of the garden. Plants can be used to soften the lines created by the rocks and to introduce a sense of growth and life. The choice of plants should be carefully considered to complement the serene and minimalist nature of karesansui.
