The Ikebana International Exhibition staged by the Washington DC Chapter at the USNA Bonsai & Penjing Museum





I look forward to this show every year! As usual it'll run for three weeks from the 6th to the 22nd. I think the arrangements are changed three times. On opening day I happened on one of the arrangers changing flowers already!

This year the show was to have been themed around cherries to commemorate the 100th anniversary of the gift of the cherry trees. Our spring was so early that there was no material left! After a non-winter and a spring where things were up to three weeks premature, this weekend, Easter, feels just like a typical Easter weekend. We are going to need some rain soon though.

 I've posted previous exhibitions. 2011     2010
