Unbeknownst to many, there is a flower for everyday of the year that, expressed as an emblem, celebrates that day and acts as a birthday symbol. Known as hanakomon in Japanese, each of the floral emblems depicted in this book has been paired with a carefully selected one-word description—koikotoba—derived from the character and cultural significance of the flower itself. This book further develops the image created by these hanakomon and koikotoba into a short profile that summarizes the marked traits and personality of persons born on that day. Discover the message in these hanakomon as they can point you in the best direction to better your day.
