Morning glory　7325

Seasonal Pattern：2023.08.04

I learned from the explanation of the botanical garden that morning glory was introduced for medicinal purposes in the Nara period.

It began to be grown as a garden plant in the Edo period.

The morning glory blooms on a dazzling summer morning, but for some reason I feel fleeting rather than brightness.

Maybe it’s because the flowers themselves know that they wither in half a day.

The morning glory pattern drawn by a kimono designer in 2000 is dyed with many colors.

Designed by Maeda.

Color schemed by Toshiyuki Tamaoka.
