Chrysanthemum display, One thousand flowers from one stem

Thu, November 1, 2018

The most difficult chrysanthemum display is the senrin zaki (also called ozukuri), meaning “one thousand flowers from one stem". A single plant, usually with large flowers, is grown on a wire and bamboo frame, producing hundreds or even thousand simultaneously blooming flowers.

This giant arrangement can reach 3-4 meters, and it is known that it was first made for the Imperial family in 1884.
