The language of the shibazakura flower is that the shibazakura blooms beautifully, and its language is hope, as well as memories, hope and shyness.

Origin of the name of Shibazakura

Shibazakura is quite famous in Japan. When it blooms, the flowers look very much like cherry blossoms, but the plant is shorter and creeps like short grass. In Japanese, the word "Shiba" refers to creeping weeds, hence the name Shibazakura.

In fact, Shibazakura is not a type of cherry blossom. It is a herbaceous plant, but its flowers are a bit like cherry blossoms. Many times when cultivating Shibazakura, they are cultivated in large areas to form a sea of ​​flowers. It is also called flowering ground cover. When it blooms, the whole sea of ​​flowers is so charming.

In fact, there is also a loving little story about Shibazakura.

In Japan, an old man planted moss pinks all over his home in order to give his wife hope to survive. He stopped his business, cut down the trees, pushed the hill into a gentle slope, and planted moss pinks on it. Later, the courtyard was full of flowers and attracted many tourists.

Many people come here to appreciate the flowers and chat with the old couple. In the fragrance of flowers, the wife told her husband that it was really a blessing to be able to hear so many voices.
