Pink and Grey Kimono Kanzashi Hairclip
I have only just listed this kimono kanzashi on etsy and I wish I didn't have to let it go as it is so lush.
For one thing, it is made from a wool kimono rather then the traditional silk kimono that a lot of people are familiar with and then there is the colour. I would have love to have owned this kimono as the colours are fab.
I have a personal love for wool kimono as they are easy to care, very versatile and hard wearing. Which is a good thing when you are living in a city that is mainly overcast and threaten to rain but also the fact that wool kimono seem to come in a range of patterns from the subdue to the flamboyant which is brilliant for a kimono wearer like me.
It is available on my etsy store and you can visit it via the link below.

Something cute although now it is out of season.
However it is a juban bolt so it will not be seen and it is always nice to have something fun underneath your kimono.

Inktober 2019 #24: Veriana Flowers Veriana flowers tend to be rare. Each flower it grows has different needs for its environment, and it can be rare for those conditions to all come together in the same area. However, each flower has its own unique root system. As such, these roots can search out soil and nutrient conditions and gravitate towards areas that meet those conditions. All the same, the seeds of Verianas rarely take root unless they can sense ideal conditions somewhere nearby. As a result of their diverse needs, the flowers that Verianas grow also tend to be seasonal, some springing up and flourishing when weather is ideal, and others closing up and receding back into the soil.
Inktober 2019 #31: Chuwana Flowertree A plant found only on Mewga Island, by the southern cape of Wing Alayna. The canopy of translucent petals it grows can come in pink, light blue, light green and other soft, pastel colors. Its petals are beloved by Fashion and Dancer Buddys alike, as it was once remarked by the Queen that the flowering head of the plant resembled a "tutu," an article of clothing worn by dancers in some distant world. Attempts to emulate the pattern have been made, but as far as reproducing it goes, efforts are still ongoing. The Chuwana Flowertree will grow nowhere else aside from Mewga Island, though it is theorized a different strain of the species may be able to be introduced to Furheart Iiah. It does not often produce seeds by itself either, so cultivating seedlings takes time and patience by itself without the added complications of relocation.
I’ve been neglecting to upload these to tumblr, so here we go! Floratober/Inktober days 1-10!
Aprai Liflower
The Aprai Liflower is a small plant that craves lots of sun. During rainy months and at night it will close up, and during partially rainy months it may even retreat into the ground completely to await the return of the sun. Found in the Amicaia region of Wing Alayna primarily, though it had been known to prefer the longer days and drier climate of the Warminia Songlianne continent.
Red Magnificentia
A rare flower found deep in the valleys of the High Amica Mountains. The plant is known for its powerfully red petals, redder than any other red. It is prized and sought after for dyes, but attempts at cultivation have been tricky, as it is quite particular about its habitat. Though there are rumors of one that grows deep in the Greater Amican Forest...
Swirlah Tree
Well-known for its delectable berries reminiscent of peaches, as well as its fragrant, cinnamon-like bark, the Swirlah tree can be a lucky find if you're ever lost in the Great Buddy Forest... Or, if you're just out for a stroll in the woods.
Lonlar
"On the Lonlar, a lone Lar-leaf."
Prized for its leaves and fiddlehead-like stem, most every part of the Lonlar can be cooked and enjoyed. The Wing Alaynan variety is sweeter, but the Reline Ah variety, depicted here, has a much milder taste, like lettuce.
Radianis
Deep in the Greater Amican Forest, on a certain day of the year, one may happen upon a glowing field of Radiani flowers. Though a field of them can be spectacular in the day, in the dark of the forest at night, they're something else entirely. Though efforts have been made to determine the day they bloom on, it seems to be different every year, and so does the annual Radiani festival held each year around the blooming fields of Radianis.
Topberry Waterbush
The Topberry Waterbush is a strange bush that grows in water. It can do so in oceans or lakes, but the oceanic variety will have a saltier tang, take longer to grow and will not grow as large. They can be fairly easily cultivated, and their sweet, tart berries are a beloved addition to any dish. They can also be enjoyed raw, or ground up and dried to be steeped with tea leaves to make a quite enjoyable tea.
Shizukumi Plant
Shizukumi plants are a common sight during the rainy season in Wing Alayna. It's good to get them now, though--they quickly disappear once the season is over, and their fruits make wonderful portable water sources if you can carry them right.
Straigeg Plant
Coveted for its rich blue hues, the Straigeg fruit has many applications, from dyes to gourmet dishes, or just plucked and eaten raw. It has a refreshing, cool taste somewhat reminiscent of blueberry or blue raspberry.
Tama Aquabullas
a.k.a Tama Waterbubbles, Tamatama Aquabullas
A bit of a throwback to last year, we have another variety of the Aquabulla Plant, the Tama Aquabulla Plant! For when Yura Aquabullas aren't enough, you're lucky if you can find the larger Tama variety! They're a bit fragile, so finding and keeping them intact can be difficult, especially on long journeys. But, if you can find an intact one and have a container for them or a careful hand, they can make for convenient and larger sources of water than the tiny Yura waterbubbles.
Lila Sumita
"Oh the tales I would tell--if only I had sense to tell them."
"Whisper your love into its petals, and your one--however far in space or time--will surely hear it."
The Lila Sumita is something of a fable, said to bloom only when the lovelorn are near. In the legend of Helia and Karuha, it blooms on the hill that the protagonist declares his love on. Many have sought it out after hearing of the legend, and though they have found similar flowers, they seem in comparison quite plain--but that doesn't stop romantics from doing as the poems tell them.
Mimillias Once a year, in the middle of summer, the Mimillias bloom all over the continent of Wing Alayna for just a day, then close up like they are for most of the year. Thus, Summerdance 15th has become a continental holiday, a day of rest for those who labor in this or that job, a day for everyone to simply go out and enjoy the flowers. It is often associated with romance, as the good many parties that are held often bring Buddys together that might otherwise be apart. Mimillias bloom in three different colors, pink for the plains, shown here, orange for the highlands and green for the forest.
Kopp'tura Rainheart
This bright pink flower is found on Reline Ah, the hidden continent of the Flower Buddys. The Kopp'tura Rainheart is a rare flower rumored to cure heartache in those who gaze upon it. Though scarce, its seeds are treasured and carefully sown where a lonely Flower Buddy might gaze on it and find relief.
Gumidro Sweetflower
A legendary flower said to grow in the Sweetfields of Furheart Iiah. It is reported to have been seen in the heart of the continent, but only if you bring with you a maiden of mysterious origins with pink hair...
Lesser Skypetal Flyona
A member of the Flyona family, Lesser Skypetals are distinguished by their leafy stems and lack of antennae-like stamen. Generally known as a wild version of the Sweetpetal Flyona, sweetener made from Lessser Skypetals is a lot less sweet, and generally takes more to boil down as its naturally sweet fluid is much more watery than its preferred counterpart. Still, a type of liorice can be made from boiling the stem and it is widely enjoyed, giving it one advantage over the more famous Sweetpetal.
Clearleaf Namiida
Thought to be a cross between the Flyona family and some of the clear plants from Crescent Minoria, the Clearleaf Namiida bears particularly sweet blossoms which rivals that of the Sweetpetal Flyona. Namiidas are also said to glow on nights where the moon is particularly full, leading some to believe it may also be related to Flarowan Pikanas.
Whitia Boubou
A rare flower found in north Wing Alayna, the Whitia Boubou produces a white nectar that, when set out to air, slowly hardens into a cheese-like substance. It has a sweet note to it and the consistency of the hardened nectar is still a bit liquidy like fresh mozzarella, ricotta and other fresh cheeses. Though considerably a rare commodity, it has quite a following for the many applications that its nectar can be used for, and wherever it is found, it is seldom found without Jara Flora set out to collect the nectar that falls from its dangling flowers.
Many-petaled Flyona
Many of the Flyona species are cultivated in Sky Buddy World for their sweet petals and licorice-like stems. The Many-petaled Flyona, as its name implies, bears many petals, though in exchange it is much leafier than the Sweetpetal Flyona, as well as shorter, with a milder, more diluted taste to its petals than its wild predecessor. It has a stronger flavor in its stem however thanks to the extra bulk it has, and its extra petals lend to a certain aesthetic beauty despite what they've lost in taste.
Furheartian Varia Maria
A simple flower found to be growing in Furheart Iiah. Its bright pink stems are reminiscent of Vina Heartias, leading some to believe they are related.
Varia Marias come in a large variety of shapes and adapt to their environment. As a result, many flowers by the Varia Maria name look nearly nothing alike despite their documented ancestry. Due to how different they look, they are sometimes given native names and their status as a Varia Maria becomes separate.
Identifying a flower as a Varia Maria always starts with hearing from the locals about the flower's ancestry. Other than the fact that Varia Marias are always small, there is often very little linking any given small flower to the Varia Maria family, but beliefs about them abound. It was once thought that there was only one Varia Maria per continent, but this was later discovered to be untrue. That said, their adaptations seem to be linked to the area that they grow in, and some types of Varia Maria can be quite rare.
The Furheartian Varia Maria in particular is deceptively rare; it has the look of a very common flower, or like it might be a hybrid of a Vinia Heartia and some other plant. And while it isn't confirmed whether or not it has mixed ancestry, there is a reason that it was thought to be the only one on the continent for a long time.
Halafura Duloa
The petals of this flower were once so frequently used in tea that the flowers were never seen beyond the closed blossom stage, leading some to believe that Halafura Duloa flowers never opened. It was also once believed that the flowers would only open simultaneously. While this does frequently occur with Halafura Duloa pairs, there are some that choose to open at a different time than their twin.
Originating from Fuline Ah, the Halafura Duloa is sometimes also spotted along the west coast of Wing Alayna.
Karakaramiin Riifu
A plant found on islands near Furheart Iiah. Another variety grows on the continent as well, but it bears more cottony tufts and is a lighter pink. Attempts have been made to cultivate the plant in Wing Alaynan soil, but they have been largely unsuccessful thus far. The plant is quite popular with Neonyas and Kitonyas especially, having a mild hyperactive effect on them. The flowers have something of a nutty taste to them, and may cause Buddys to feel snackish and want more of them, but otherwise does not have quite the same effect on them. The leaves have a watery, much milder nut taste to them, a bit like water chestnuts. The roots produce tubers much like water chestnuts as well. The plant makes for a very popular house plant if its needs can be properly attended to, even for non-pet owners who also don't particularly care for the taste of the plant. That said though, it needs to be kept in a capsule that imitates its native climate, and such technology is only found in the Queen's Palace, so it can be a bit of a hassle for potential owners to obtain the means to properly care for one.
Lotiana
A type of Varia Maria found only on Bilone Bien Island, which is the largest island of the Fuline Ah archipelago. It is thought that the roots burrow down into an underground reservoir below the island, as the plant carries many characteristics of some aquatic plants despite growing on land. Though it seems to have adapted for land, it is thought that ancestors of the plant once grew lilypads and were found in lakes and even at sea.
