 +   * Flower container is always on the side towards 下座; unless you got a 真 scroll, when it might be put in the middle.
 +   * 宗旦 build a room called 又隠 which has the peg on the wrong side. This is because 宗旦 liked to make tea for himself and wanted to look at the flowers (LK 23)

 +🧺 Baskets, which are only used in summer, go directly on the floor (but of course, people break this rule to elevate their baskets) 
 + 
 +🛹 If your 床 is not floored with 畳, but instead has a board (making it an 板床), then you don't need any boards; you put all the flower containers directly on the 床板.

-      * According to [[nampouroku|南方録]] one blossom for the small, two for the big room.+      * According to [[nanpouroku|南方録]] one blossom for the small, two for the big room. 
 +      * LK 23 said it should be one or two, or an uneven number of flowers (including grasses) 
 +      * Not more than 3 colours

 +   * LK 23 go a bit more into depth:
 +         * For the 花入, it makes it a lot easier if you put one or even two horizontal stalks in there. Like this the flower doesn't have to lean on the rim of the vase, which is nice. 
 +         * <wrap info>Make sure it's a green stalk and not a dry one that will expand in water, otherwise you might crack your vase.</wrap>
 +         * For the 花, cut them //in water//, then leave them in water for at least an hour so they become happy.
 +         * Prepare more flowers than the guest needs for 所望
 +         * For the 花台, wet it and dab it dry; a towel under the flowers makes sense, so you can prevent dripping on the 畳
 +         * Pick a flower up, hold it between your fingers and release the pressure slightly to see how it wants to fall. This is how it should be "in the field"
 +         * Hold it next to the vase, and consider the point of view from where it will be seen. It might look shit from the side, but nice for someone sitting in front of it.
 +         * Taller things to the back, duh; all faces the front. Often a main flower, and a secondary (姫) flower.
 +         * To cut, knife from underneath the stem, thumb on the other side. Twist the end of the stem down, then pull the knife. Put the cut end on the right bottom corner of the 花台
 +         * Place it with one breath (but adjust a bit, if necessary)
 +         * If you're not doing 花所望, spray them a little bit. Take a towel with you, so that you keep the spray from getting on the 床. If you're doing it, spray the flowers before putting them on the 花台.
 +   * Brown parts and bug bites are okay; better to leave them than to cut part of the leaf.
