Botan (牡 丹) means Peony in Japanese and is considered the «kidney of flowers» because of its beauty, elegance and symbolism.
It is associated with wealth, prosperity and love, and is often featured in traditional Japanese art.
The chrysanthemum blooms in autumn and is a very representative flower of Japan (like sakura) and symbolizes longevity.
Its motif is used for the crest of the imperial family. The splendour of the "rangiku", which is a flower with petals in the wind, expresses a delicate and aesthetic feeling.
