WATER-GROWING BULBS 



Such openings left for the fish are known as 

 sakana-micbi, or fish highways. 



It is not correct in these arrangements to 

 let any of the groups hang over the edge 

 of the vase. The edge is considered as the 

 frame of the picture, and nothing should 

 be allowed to pass beyond it. A branch or 

 spray in these water-growing arrangements 

 may, however, bend over and touch the 

 water, pass under it, and come out again, 

 pointing upwards. 



Flowers Arranged in Holders are Easier 

 Jor a Beginner 



The holder stands up of itself, and after 

 placing it in the vase you can at once begin 

 work. Then, too, the lines in these arrange- 

 ments are more simple and upright and are 

 arranged according to relative height and posi- 

 tion, only very little bending being required. 

 To my thinking there is no arrangement of 

 flowers more beautiful than these in the low 

 vases, and nothing can be accomplished more 

 quickly.
