Spider persimmon flower (Higanbana flower "Higanbana")

Higanbana flower or spider persimmon flower

Higanbana flowers, also scientifically named Lycoris radiata (for red) and Lycoris albiflora (for white), are flowers of a quaint shape and full of deep stories, especially in Japanese and Chinese cultures.

✨ Meaning and belief (especially white)

The meaning of white Lycoris in the Japanese floral language. White means "only one yearning" (I only think of you) and "reunion."

Unlike red, which often conveys death or separation, white gives a softer sense, conveying purity and spiritual cleansing.

The equinox, called "Hican," means "over there," or the land after death. This flower will bloom at the time of merit for the ancestors, so it is called the flower of remembrance of the departed.

Philosophical meaning Because Higanbana is a flower that "leaves do not find flowers, flowers do not find leaves" (when blooming does not have leaves, when leaves grow do not have flowers), it is often used as a symbol of love that never meets, or leave that is already defined.

🌿 Benefits of Higanbana flowers

Although Hikanbana is a poisonous plant (Lycorgine) in its head and stems, it is useful in various fields:

1.Benefits in agriculture (ancient wisdom)

Prevent pests and animals In the old days, Japanese peasants planted hikanbana on kanna or around graves because their heads were poisonous, preventing rats, mole, or insects from eating crops or digging into the soil.

2. Medicinal properties (required by experts)

In ancient Chinese medicine texts, extracts from hikanbana heads have been used to help expel sputum, cure edema, and cure certain types of inflammation (because they are highly toxic, they cannot be processed or used arbitrarily by themselves).

3. Decorative and landscaping aspects

Its distinctive beauty, with spider-like shapes or flares, makes it an ornamental plant that provides very beautiful lines in Zen landscaping or Ikebana floral arrangements.

Cover crops are durable plants, grow well in a variety of soil conditions, and help adhere well to soil.

⚠️. Caution.

Do not eat. All parts of the hikanbana tree are poisonous. If given in large doses, it can cause vomiting, diarrhea, paralysis, or death.

Touch For people with sensitive skin, the tread can cause itchy rash.
