This branch was given to me , when Suzie and I went for a walk through "Sakurayama" (Cherry blossom mountain) just before it officially opened. A caretaker took us around, using words Suzie didn't understand and then gave us a huge branch to take home. We split it up and this is my piece, in it's blooming glory.
Because my house is relatively cool, flowers last forever in the winter/early spring . I've had these mums for over 4 weeks. The spider plant was a gift from the caretaker at Awaga, and the hyacinth was an impulse buy because it smelt so good
I started ikebana class (Japanese flower arranging) and this is my first one. This is the traditional style, and the top area represents the heavens, the irises (middle) represent people, and the purple flowers (which I don't know the name of, but smell wonderful) represent animals/nature.
It's also cherry blossom time in Japan! This is on sakurayama once the trees started really going.
It smells lovely.
