Monty Don returns to Japan during the fiery blaze of autumn. He begins as he did in spring, at one of 'the three great gardens of Japan' to learn how they protect the garden from the coming winter.
He follows the history of the Japanese garden through the military strongholds of leaders past to the many styles, new and old, of the iconic stroll garden, and discovers a slice of Victorian England in the heart of Tokyo. He learns how the Japanese are weaving nature into their concrete urban jungle.
Monty explores rooftop gardens, takes lessons in the intricate art of bonsai and moss balls, as well as visiting an astounding modern feat of architecture and garden design. He ends his journey by the Sea of Japan at a place that literally makes art out of its gardens.
Monty Don återvänder till Japan när höstfärgerna sprakar, och besöker några av landets främsta trädgårdar för att se hur de tar hand om dem inför stundande vinter. Genom landets olika styren har en uppsjö olika trädgårdskonst vuxit fram och Monty upptäcker en liten skärva av viktoriansk engelsk trädgårdskonst mitt i Tokyos hjärta.
