(I suppose it's better than pushing up daisies...) I like the story about the petals. Beyond being interesting I think it talks about a culture really in touch with their plants and their world.

And when you get the lavendar door as an accent piece, it'll tie everything together! ; ) Love that tidbit about the rose heads. I was thinking I preferred the petal-by-petal conclusion, because I always like the way petals puddle on the ground below (cherry trees do it especially delightfully, I find)but hadn't considered the samurai point of view!

Wasabi might have been a finalist for a wall we painted last January, I think. Light gray with a hint of olive is our favorite color to show off plants, pretty close to your wasabi.

I can see why the "urban greys" appealed, but maybe they're urban for a reason, plants don't seem to like them. I liked your solution of painting the walls different colors! There's some harmony among them, it seems to me, and I like it that you're giving each of the directions a color. Thanks for the C. sasanqua v. C. japonica clarification; I'd just been noticing the C. sasanquas in my quest to know more about camellias. (Hm Town Mouse, that is a thought-provoking question. Maybe they felt it was more genteel.) You were smart to give those colors screen tests. I can see why the “urban greys” appealed, but maybe they’re urban for a reason, plants don’t seem to like them.

I like what you did with the colors. As for the samurai, did they prefer being hacked to death bit by bit? What fun! I like what you did with the colors.
