From a series: Floral Calendar of Japan or Kyō no Hana Koyomi – Shiki no Hana.
Beautiful colors.
Circa 1970.
Publisher: Unsodo.
Nishiki-e.
Shin hanga. Kachoe.
The suiren literally means "sleeping lotus" because it opens at sunrise and closes at sunset. Since it opens at the hour of hitsuji (the hour corresponding to Aries), it is also called hitsuji-gusa. While it does grow wild in Japan, most cultivated varieties are of foreign origin, either Indian or Egyptian.
