The Spring Equinox approaches and celebrates the new life beginnings that surround you in nature. This season is a symbol of the impermanence and transience of life. This class will guide to create spring Chabana ( 茶花: Japanese Tea Ceremony floral arrangement ) with a small tea tree (Camellia sinensis) seedling plant. We will also learn about tea trees as a culinary culture and botanical aspect. After the class, you will take a tea tree home and enjoy it as an indoor/outdoor plant.

The seasonal sweet will be served with a bowl of matcha. Instructed by Professional Horticulturist & Floral artist EunYoung Sebazco

Chabana (茶花, literally "tea flowers") is the arrangement of seasonal flowers for a Japanese tea ceremony. Displayed in the tokonoma alcove along with other key thematic elements for the gathering, the chabana style appeals to those who prefer a simple, natural look in their creation. While ikebana and other styles of floral arrangement prescribe their own distinct frameworks, chabana recognizes and transfers the essence of field to vase.

A special big thanks to Globus Family who supports this program.
