Ikebana is the Japanese art of flower arrangement. Wikipedia states: Japanese flower arrangement is based on the line of twigs and/or leaves, filled in with a small number of blooms. The container is also a key element of the composition. The structure of a Japanese flower arrangement is based on a scalene triangle delineated by three main points, usually twigs, considered in some schools to symbolize heaven, earth, and man and in others sun, moon and earth. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ikebana Feb 28 08, 6:24 AM
