'Tsuyukusa' (ツユクサ, 露草, 鴨跖草, 鴨跖) goes by many names, but because its flowers open at dawn and wither at dusk, it is commonly known as the 'dayflower'.
This brief burst of life has made it a symbol of fleeting affections, changes of heart, and nostalgic feelings.

🪻SUMMER BLUES🎨
Despite what the humidity may be telling us outside, the traditional calendar promises that we are now in a season called 'shosho' (処暑 'manageable heat'-August 23rd-September 7th).
From now until autumn the delicate Asiatic dayflower (ツユクサ) begins to bloom.
