Shofuso Japanese House and Garden is located in the Fair Mount Park, PA. Members of Ikebana International Chapter #71 has been providing Shofuso with floral arrangements, by Ikebana practitioners of multiple schools for many years, enhancing the authenticity and beauty of this historic site. It is opened to the public from May to October. Our Main Line Study Group (Sogetsu school) shared the duty for the flower arrangement throughout the month of August. So, my arrangements were assigned for 8/16 /2019 that weekend.
Three locations must be displayed. The house has many different kinds of containers that you can choose to use.
1) At the entrance: Sunflower, hosta, willow and mardi gras helenium / ceramic
2) Main room window shelf (Tatami room): Azalea, Dahlia, hydrangea and lichen covered wood branch / ceramic
3) Tea room: Japanese Anemone and Iris leaves / small basket
