Decorations at Japanese Garden to Help Protect Trees During Winter

For the first time in 44 years, the Portland Japanese Garden has unveiled winter decorations specifically designed to protect its trees during harsh winter months. This initiative supports the trees as they face challenges from snow and frost, using ropes tied to branches to help them bear the weight of winter precipitation. This approach enhances the garden's aesthetic appeal while underscoring its commitment to environmental preservation. Visitors can appreciate both the enchanting decorations and their practical significance, marking a new chapter in the garden's seasonal adaptations and reflecting a progressive approach to horticultural care.
