Of all the flowers, mums take 1st place
As far as I'm concerned they're by far the most amazing!
In these photos are some of the flowers I grow. And vases, pitchers, and sculptures I make.
I've enjoyed creating so much in my life, and at last I've found mums again. These of the more
High bred variety.
I see why the Japanese have chosen it for their National Seal!

Addicted to Kiku
Everyday these beautiful cultivars become more interesting, hues brighten, then soften,
The lighting changes appearances. No wonder this
Chrysanthemum is the symbol of Japan royal family and of the country.
Im so grateful for my Japanese friends and their inspiration. And I miss Japan sorely and love the beautiful country it is.
And my friends as well.
