Descanso Gardens hosts its annual Japanese Garden Festival on November 7 and 8, which has been a
tradition at the 1418 Descanso Drive la Cañada Flintridge location for many an autumn now. and, tradition
is the name of the game as visitors can experience Japanese culture through its music and horticulture.
The event also provides a great way to engage all fives senses, sometimes in tandem with one another.
The Chrysanthemum Show and Sale utilizes sight and smell, as does the Ikebana Display, with its flower ar-
ranging demonstration. Your hearing will get, well an earful, with Taiko Drumming that also brings touch
into the fold as you can try your hand at it. No need to worry that your sense of taste will feel left out at Full
Moon Tea House, which serves roasted shitake mushrooms among other Japanese delicacies.
