Although the rose in true Japanese ikebana is thought of as a New Year's flower, when it is typically displayed along with a fragrant pine branch; in California, summer time is rose time. This arrangement includes, calla lily, a bright red climbing rose, Camellia leaves, Gertrude Jeckel rose leaves, a bright fuchsia geranium inflorescence, a wonderful native budding shrub branch with rose colored berries, and a snowy blackberry flower. I make these displays for my partner's Buddhist shrine. Directly to the right of this dish is a golden, Tibetan Buddha.
