From the Art Institute of Chicago record

This screen was likely originally paired with another that would have featured spring and summer flowers. Here autumnal flowers (bush clover, morning glories, pinks, and hibiscus) are arranged like a bouquet in the center of the screen. Winter plants such as narcissus, nanten berries, and a stalk with shriveled beans are featured on the left. By placing the lowest-lying plants in the upper right, the artist gave the composition a sense of depth, as though the viewer is looking into a garden.
