Japanese flower arrangement, known as ikebana or kadō (the way of the flower), developed into a distinct art form during the Muromachi period from early types of Buddhist flower offerings. Today, there are an array of styles and variations, both modern and traditional. Above are a moribana style of arrangement with flowers “piled up” in a wide, shallow suiban bowl; a rikka shinputai arrangement of the Ikenobō school; flowering quince and tulips arranged in the Sōgetsu style; and An Ohara-style moribana arrangement in a suiban container. -- source link
