Daffodils are already on sale at the flower shop. Everything seems to be happening early.
This is my favorite flower; not only is it beautiful to look at, but it also has a pleasant fragrance.
As I mentioned before, this piece of old Bizen ware has an atmosphere reminiscent of an ancient temple; while quite understated, it possesses a charm that makes one want to arrange flowers in it. It harmonizes beautifully with a wide variety of blossoms, and I think it suits these daffodils particularly well.
