For a heavenly mid-summer culinary experience, slice the buds of the myoga plant, and use as a fragrant garnish on tofu, with some bonito-flavored seasoning.

For a captivating creative experience, gaze at its swirls, and go replicate them.
I'd love to come across a myoga-style....
Manhole, or
Wedding Hat, or
Gate.
A wicker chair, maze, security grille, or clockwork cogs would also look great, myoga style.
The day I left Sydney, I dashed over to my creative friend Mario's place, with a scrawny piece of Myoga root, packages of Japanese seeds, for shiso, spring chrysanthemum, burdock.
Mario is an artist and gardener, with a Japanese wife, and the ability to make anything beautiful, to work out how to do anything.
These are the stairs that Mario made:
"I will plant this" he said.
Who knows what will have sprung up at Mario's place, by the time I return?
