Both Countries Are probably the best at what they do but, just who is it that's really the best in overall Knowledge & Skill?

They both have beautiful landscaping, but travelling through Britain you notice that it's got a lot to do with naturally growing things rather than human planning. It's just really colorful. Japanese landscaping is an art which they really put a lot of time into. The Japanese take a lot of pride in appearance and have some of the most ornamental and intricate gardens on Earth. I would say the Japanese. No offense to the Brits though. Don't want to get them too upset.

I'm working on a landscaping project for school and I need to make a Japanese garden suitable for Montana. So I need plant substitutes. Iike plants I can use that are similar to Camellia, Bamboo, Japanese Stewartia, Flowering quince and Black Mondo Grass

Depending upon where you live, there might be some local nurseries who can assist you in choosing suitable replacements or look-alike specimens for your Japanese Garden. Call around and ask them.

I am in Japan for a few weeks. I used to live here so I have seen the Kyoto gardens and the usual Japanese garden stuff. However, I am now a student in landscape architecture and I would like to explore more of the contemporary/recent designs here in Japan. Does anyone know of any designed specifically by lanscape architects or land artists in the Tokyo, Saitama, or Kyushu areas?

This might sound crazy, but since no one else has tried I will. Rent The Karate Kid. Go right to the credits and see who the set designer was. Search the web and try to contact. I'll bet whoever it is has a lot of contacts here and there. That's the best wild guess I have. Sayonara

@Angel u r so great thank u very much

Japanese gardens often contain several of these elements to provide a beautiful & peaceful spot for contemplation:
Water, real or symbolic.
Rocks.
A lantern, typically of stone.
A teahouse or pavilion.
A enclosure device such as a hedge, fence, or wall of traditional character.
A bridge to the island, or stepping stones.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_ga rden

Use plants, stone & water (or pebbles to represent water)
Stones can be used to construct the garden's paths, bridges, and walkways.

You don't need to spend a lot of money on your garden because you can make use of natural elements already present. Just rearrange them so they are in harmony with the natural surroundings around them. A Japanese garden uses rocks, water and plants to recreate nature's most beautiful vistas
"Rocks represent mountains and hills, water represents streams, rivers and the ocean, and the plants can represent forests and the abundance of nature".
Stone features such as lanterns, water bowls and oriental statuary add a nice touch.
