May 30, 2025
Ikebana is the art of Japanese floral arranging, which celebrates the seasons and echoes natural landscapes with a stunning, minimalist aesthetic.
E-Ling Lou of the renowned Ohara School of Ikebana will demonstrate the art of ikebana by creating floral arrangements using spring flowers and delicate branches collected from the Arboretum’s grounds. Lou will share techniques, explain important symbolism, and discuss the use of nature across Japanese art forms.
The Spring Ikebana Demonstration will take place against the backdrop of the Arboretum’s Temperate Asia Collection on the Arboretum’s East Side, featuring trees and shrubs native to Japan, Korea, and China.
