Winter camellia – Fuyutsubaki

"Blooming dignifiedly in the cold sky."

"Winter Camellia" is the color of camellia flowers that bloom in the cold of winter.
The colors vary depending on the variety, ranging from red, white, and pale pink, but what they all have in common is the contrast between their glossy, thick petals and the dark green leaves.

Winter camellias bloom splendidly in the silence.
Even when covered in snow and frost, they continue to bloom with dignity.
It adds a touch of life and elegance to your winter garden.

Winter camellias in everyday life

• Red camellia flowers blooming in a snowy garden • Fallen camellias paint a picture of the winter ground • A single camellia at a tea ceremony

Winter camellia is a color that reflects **"beauty in the cold" and "quiet passion."**
This poetic winter flower color is in line with the "space between seasons" and "stories of materials" that WABISUKE values.

Notes and etymology

• Camellia (Camellia japonica) is an evergreen tree native to Japan that blooms from winter to spring.
• "Winter Camellia" is not the name of a variety, but a poetic expression that refers to all camellias that bloom in winter.
• Because fallen camellia flowers fall to the ground, they have been used in waka poetry as a symbol of purity and transience.
