Description

Morning glories are symbolic of summer in Japan and have been cherished for centuries. During the Edo period, their cultivation became popular, leading to the creation of many varieties. The flowers bloom in the early morning and wilt by midday, symbolizing fleeting beauty and transience. Their flower meanings include 'love' and 'ephemeral love.' As a summer tradition, they are often seen in school observation diaries and home gardens. The cool, refreshing blooms of morning glories provide a touch of respite during the hot season.
