Nandin and Flower cabbage

2005-12-10 | plant

 Nandin;(Heavenly bamboo)

 

Taking a walk in the evening, I saw this nandin; (sacred bamboo)  at the yard of my neighborhood  and these flower cabbages;’Ha-bo-ta-n' in another neighbor’s vegetable field.

 



We use these plants for the flower arrangement on new year's day.
For Nandin is a lucky plant because the Japanese name 'Na-n-te-n' means' that it will change problems to good luck.

And we associate the
 shape of  the flower cabbage with the sunrise on new year's day.
