HOW TO SUGGEST THE SEASON
Do not bring the Man and Earth sprays to the front, but when bending them away from the center spray bend them rather slightly backward.
Each line must stand out as clear-cut as the branches of a tree in winter. All plants have a sparser growth at this time. The foliage has entirely gone now and the trunk of the tree is seen to a greater height, so the Midzu-giwa is longer in winter than at any other season. It should now be five inches in length.
