菊 - Chrysanthemum
In a golden autumn garden, a noble Chrysanthemum blooms proudly.
Atop, the flower radical spreads like a grassy crown, signaling that this Chrysanthemum is a true plant of the season.
Beneath, the wrapped phonetic hides like a tiny treasure chest, giving our Chrysanthemum its melodious “kiku” name.
Inside, the Rice motif peeks out, a secret nod to harvest time and the Chrysanthemum Throne’s imperial elegance.
As the wind whispers “kiku-kiku” through its petals, the Chrysanthemum stands regal, autumnal, and unforgettable.
