Brussels sprouts

Used as we are to see Brussels sprouts in grocery stores, we may be surprised by how they look on the plant, with heads sprouting in a spiral around a thick stalk and broad leaves on top of it. Watarai found this Brussels sprout plant at a farmers' market in Kamakura and made an ikebana of it, just placing it in a very small container that highlights its shape and lines.
