Mishō-ryū
is a school of ''Ikebana'', or Japanese floral art. History It was established by Mishōsai Ippo in 1807 in the late Edo period in Osaka. He established the defining philosophy and style of the school. At the time of its establishment, the culture of the townspeople was greatly developed, and many disciples gathered from there. Over the years that followed, there was a period of decline, but Mishō-ryū became known throughout western Japan with its activities mainly in the Kinki region. In the modern Shōwa era, the city was proud of its prosperity before the war, but was caught up in World War II and declined. After the war, it was a force to be reckoned with again. The founder Mishōsai Ippo initially practiced ''kadō'', and in doing so, he turned the religious ideas of Confucianism, Taoism, and Buddhism into his fundamental ideas. In addition, the idea of finding peace of mind through flower arranging was integrated into the philosophy of the school. Styles The tr ...

Nageirebana
''Nageirebana'' (抛入花), later also known as simply ''nageire'' (抛入 "thrown in"), is a style of ''ikebana''. It is also known as ''Heika'' (瓶花). History ''Nageirebana'' has its roots reaching far back to the beginning as a casual style of arranging flowers, in contrast to the more regulated ''Tatehana'' of Buddhist altars, which later evolved into the ''Rikka''. It is associated with the later legendary story of a ''samurai''. The legend states that a ''samurai'', bored on a hot summer day, threw plant material into the small opening of a tall, deep vase on the opposite corner of the room. Thus this style received its name. This form utilizes fresh and spontaneous designs that adhere only loosely to the classical principles of triangular structure and color harmony. Therefore, ''nageirebana'' is less formal than ''rikka'', which was developing around the same time. ''Nageirebana'' was also practiced and around the time that ''chabana'' and ''seika'' were developing ...
