One of Slugg’s favorite pastimes while traveling is wandering through the bustling and picturesque street gardens of Tokyo, hoping to stumble upon exciting clusters of potted plants that line them. During his recent visit to Tokyo's street gardens (Slugg is quite the jet setter!), he found it fascinating to discover numerous potted plants dotted around the entrances of apartment buildings and shop fronts. It truly brightened his day!
These incredible images were taken by the talented India and Magnus of Haarkon, who spend their time documenting their travels. Enjoy!
