Moribana
''Moribana'' (盛り花, 盛花) is one of the expressions of Japanese flower arrangement ''Ikebana''. The word ''Moribana'' means "full bloom flowers". History This style was introduced by Unshin Ohara around 1890 after the Meiji Restoration of 1868. ''Moribana'' is not only an expression of Unshin Ohara’s creative departure from '' Ikenobo'', but was also a strong sign of the Western influence in Japan. The arranged flowers may be placed in Western-style rooms and entranceways, not just in the ''tokonoma'' alcove found in traditional Japanese-style rooms. While distinctly a hallmark of the Ohara school, ''moribana'' has become one of the standard forms learned and created by ''Ikebana'' practitioners regardless of school or style affiliation. ''Moribana'' is often associated with '' nageire'', and although the two styles share similarities, their historic development is different, ''nageire'' being older.
