*Birthday Flowers*
This week, we had one of my cousin's birthday party with delicious lunch and refreshing chitchat♪ I asked the arranged flower for her at the Flower-Shop where we used to go for special occasion. To my surprise, I found the GORGEOUS big flower similar to Cotton Rosemallow at her own house-side.
The old lady-owner told me its Japanese name and added; as it was gifted by her daughter, really preciousfor her. In English, "Swamp Rose Mallow"

She called the flower "america-fuyouアメリカ芙蓉; American Cotton Rosemallow"
Through PC, I learned the flower is Native to North America. Always fascinates me finding these interesting naming differences between the 2 languages♪
These are the arranged flower and Anthurium my husband wished to buy.
Oh, I should have taken picture without the bag...

Wow, what gorgeous flowers. And they are huge! From the name, I'm guessing they may grow in swamp area in North America :-) The arranged flower is very pretty. I bet your cousin loved it!
