【What is Ikebana】 Japan is blessed with changing seasons and plentiful flora. However, Ikeban isn't about just arranging flowers beautifully. Ikebana is like the painting, expression of arts using plant materials. Plants materials are often perfectly beautiful in its natural states and what humans can do to reproduce it in another place? It starts from observing plant color, shape and texture. With help of the nature, man’s hand expresses artistic inspiration and make your own flower “my flower.”
