Roxanne's Camellias are blooming, and our Redbuds still have some buds on the stems.  I thought they would make a nice Ikebana arrangement. 

 

Ikebana is a style of flower arranging that has a long history.  In Japan, ikebana simply means arranging flowers.  But in recent history, it has come to be more symbolic of heaven, man, and earth.  That's how I learned about it.  

 

See my three elements?  Redbud, white Camellias, and green leaves.  Try it, it's simply beautiful.  

 

HAPPY GARDENING!!!
