Bonuspoints Plants: 100%

The choice and condition of the plants are impeccable. The flourishing pogostemon erectus stands as a testament to the artist's dedication and mastery. Its blossoming adds an ethereal touch, making the composition all the more enchanting.

Bonuspoints Photography: 100%

The photography is brilliantly executed. It doesn't just document the wabi-kusa but enhances its allure, capturing that fleeting moment of blooming in its entirety. The crispness and lighting showcase the nuances of the composition, making it a visual treat.

Bonuspoints Artistic Creativity: 100%

Creativity shines through in this artwork. The dense moss ball juxtaposed with the flowering pogostemon erectus creates a harmonious balance of density and openness. The artist has showcased a profound understanding of wabi-kusa principles.

To elevate this masterpiece further, as suggested, introducing a super shallow ceramic filled with just a hint of water could offer a mirrored reflection of the wabi-kusa. This reflective surface would add another layer of depth, making the piece even more captivating and introducing the water element.

This piece stands as a beacon of inspiration. It's not just a representation of nature but an invitation to immerse oneself in its beauty. Kudos to the artist for such a splendid creation!
