It's a beautiful flower full of dignified atmosphere. The beauty is beyond
description. In China it has been cultivated as a medical use since B.C.
It was imported in Nara era (1300 years ago) to Japan. We started to enjoy
it in a tea ceremony in Edo era (400 year ago). There is also a double-petaled one. Although it's very luxurious, this
time we use a single-petaled flower which has delicate and golden pistil
and stamen.

The fresh green leaves are bright. We paid attention to growing branches
and leaves. But we can enjoy it in all seasons, it has many tiny and white
flowers in June, it has red berries and colored leaves in Autumn. In the
North Europe, people deify it as a sacred tree of the talismans. It also
grows throughout Japan and we often see it in the mountains.

total atmosphere is quiet. It's very tasteful. |
