A customer comes into your shop carrying a gorgeous oval bowl. It’s very large and low, and has a pale
gray crackled glaze. He tells you it’s a bonsai container that he picked up during a trip to Japan. He asks
you to make an arrangement of fresh flowers that will be placed in this bowl. The arrangement will then be
displayed in the foyer of his business for a celebration that will take place there next week. The furnishings
in the foyer are very modern. The bowl will be placed on a counter, so the arrangement will be visible from
both sides. The customer says that the colors in the foyer are black, white, and gray. He wants an artistic
arrangement that suits the bowl. After he leaves your shop, you decide that a parallel-systems floral design
is just what this container needs.

soak the foam.
