Mimosa

Mimosas, tulips, thuja and
Weaved willow branches

Early Mimosas

I find it quite satisfying to use multiple containers in my ikebana works. The s-shaped plastic shuiban with my own yellow slipcast porcelain vases created a nice harmony with the curvy kiwi and bright yellow mimosas. It is full of light and energy that is very much needed now in the middle of winter.

Delicate Mimosa

Dogwood, salix, mimosa

A combined style arrangement from Sogetsu School curriculum: Moribana with Nageire. I used red dogwood, curvy salix branches and delicate mimosas which blossom quite early this year.
