    The appreciation of the Japanese garden among foreigners is making headway in recent years toward the quest of the very essence of Japanese Garden. The fact is proved well by the nomber of examples built in Europe such as one in Vienna (1970, 1973), Karlsruhe (1967), Hamburg (1963, 1973), Diisseldorf (1975), Bonn (1979), Miinchen (1983), Augsburg (1985) or the Japanese Garden at the International Garden Festival, Liverpool (1984), as well as those built recently in U. S. A., Canada, Brazil, Singapore and elsewhere.
    While there should be some causes which have brought about such increment of interest in the Japanese Garden, it must be noted that there had been two preceding constructions of Japanese gardens of earlier days which doubtless gave the impetus to such mood. One of them was the exhibits of Japanese Garden in the international expositions abroad as one feature of the Japanese culture, and the other was the gardens built by foreign persons who either had stayed in Japan or else those who visited Japan as travellers and were impressed by the Japanese garden, and built their gardens at their homes simulating the Japanese garden, the style different from their own. This article attempts to explain the point at issue by two out-standing examples in some details. The writer believes that the histories of these gardens would supplement a protion of the history of the Japanese Garden.

    From the viewpoint of restoring the native landscape, we could utilize coppicetrees for revegetation of reclaimed land by the transplanting. But, in the case of steep slopes, stem cuttings obtained from coppice seems to be more suitable, if it would be possible, from the standpoint of stability, efficiancy, and economy.
    Usually, rooting of large sized or thick stem has been thought difficult except limited species such as willow, poplar and ficus. The experimental research was conducted with Quercus glauca, Clethra barbinervis, Ilex pedunculosa and Ilex macropoda, in 1984. Fig. 1 and Table 1 show the design of the experiment.
    The results were as follows: Each of the previously listed four species sprouted shoots by early July. However, most of them died because of drought and high temperature in the summer. Quercus obtained from the lower stem near the base showed a considerable rooting by the treatment with 3-Indolebutyric Acid (IBA) 2000 ppm solution, regardless of the stem girth. The rooting ratio was about 80% including the ringing ones, and the longest root was 66.0cm. Although the rooting occurred just in the lower stems even without IBA treatment and also in the central stems just by treatment with IBA 2000 ppm solution, the rooting ratio was reduced remarkablly. There was no effect in the ringing and the treatment with IBA 20 ppm solution. The coating with wax (paraffin) brought rather harmful results for sprouting and rooting.
    On the other hand, Clethra and I. pedunculosa showed a little rooting in several samples, and I. macropoda had none at all. However, since the above three species showed a considerable callus tissue, their rooting may be expected by good irrigation in summer.
