FLOWERS OF JAPAN 



This chrysanthemum garden in Yokohama provides a charming background for the Geisha quartet garbed 

 in their soft-hued, silk kimonas. The "shimada" coiffure is usually a badge of the unmarried woman among the 

 Japanese. While the roof of this greenhouse is of glass, the chrysanthemum fancier frequently uses inexpensive 

 oil-paper to protect his blossoms from the frost.
