THE FLOWER ART OF JAPAN 



As the leaves have fallen, it is now 

 possible to see the lovely form of Mt. 

 Ikoma, which is as beautiful in its way as 

 the lost glory of the autumn. This gives 

 the key to winter arrangements. In these 

 groups the flowers must be arranged with 

 wide spaces between their branches, so that 

 whatever is back of them may be seen 

 through the lines of the group: as 

 mountains are revealed in winter through 

 branches of dead trees.
