Summer in Japan is announced by the burst of greenery as warm rains bathe the country. Removal of the shoji panel behind the screened window, and a cool flower arrangement produce a light, refreshing atmosphere.
Autumn is cherished by the Japanese for the all too brief period of brilliant foliage followed quickly by the quiet, melancholy tones of nature preparing for the winter ahead. This is a time to reflect upon the irrevocable passage of time and the beauty of Japanese traditions.
