Small flowers combined with chrysanthemum

A large chrysanthemum developes in the sky and then small flowers appear on the chrysanthemum(Fig.115.(C)). With another type the small flowers appear only after the big chrysanthemum has been extinguished. This is achieved by using somewhat longer fuses for the small flowers. These varieties are only successful when the size of the shell is large enough to contain many small flowers, i.e. 9.5 inches or more. 

This shell resembles Warimono in construction, but the bursting charge is somewhat weakened and the life of the stars is prolonged to about 8 10 seconds. The composition of the stars is the charcoal dust 

This shell is also a kind of Warimono. Each of the main stars contains a cracker as the core. When the flower has been developed in the sky, the stars crack as the burning ceases and they make a great deal of noise. For the noise composition, red explosive is used because it can produce a loud noise with only a small amount of composition. The explosive in the wet state is rolled with a sheet of Kozo paper into a cord, which is cut in small pieces while it is still wet. The pieces are coated immediately with another safer composition. These are finished by pasting with composition as with ordinary main stars.
