JAPANESE FLOWER ARRANGEMENT 



because two leaves and a flower prevent us 

 from a full front view of the main stem. 



No. 2 represents Ashirai too close to the 

 main stem. 



No. 3 Ashirai is "ideally" arranged. It 

 being separate and distinct, the effect is admi- 

 rable. The leaves behind the flower marked 

 by a long line at the right of the arrange- 

 ment render the whole thing very effect- 

 ive. There should always be these leaves 

 in an Ashirai arrangement.
