The purpose of this study is to reveal how the garden was positioned in a life of a family in the home management books published in Meiji Era. For the purpose of analysis, the home management books were divided into three categories; traditional home management books, translated books from the Western culture, and textbooks authorized by the Ministry of Education. Various results were observed among the three categories. While there were almost no descriptions on the garden in the traditional home management books and the translated ones, most textbooks had a chapter about the garden that described not only the Japanese-style garden but also Western-style ones. In those textbooks, the garden was treated as a place for a family to take a walk or play together. Also, books that were published later in the era recommended a housewife to plant flower seeds and raise vegetables with her children and elderly. These findings showed that the home management books started to treat the garden in the second half of the Meiji Era, when the concept of "home" spread and the new middle class increased.
