Hibiscus

【Original】Hibiscus ぶっそうげ

Flower language: bravery, new love

A flower pinned by the ear, a message of love

Behind the skirt swaying in the wind

Big enthusiastic eyes showing ambiguity

The most refreshing girls are from the South

Emily Sensei says:

This sexy and passionate hibiscus, which belongs to the hot summer, is my original creation. In fact, after many years of thinking, I finally had an idea one day: why not make a close-up of the hibiscus flower to show its special features of deep creases and long stamens. Because it is a close-up, more attention has been paid to the subtle lines to present the feeling of the hibiscus flower moving in the wind. This contrasts with the upward lines of the yellow stamen, giving the whole flower more vitality.

I remember when I was a child, on the way to school, I would often pick a hibiscus flower, pull out the stamens, and suck the sweet nectar. It is said that if a Hawaiian girl puts a hibiscus flower above her left ear, it means "You are the lover I want." If she puts it above her right ear, it means "I already have a lover." As for putting flowers on both sides, it probably means " I already have a lover, but I hope to have one more." What an interesting hint!
