Light blue tiny flowers of forget-me-not are
one of our favourite spring flower in our garden.
It flowers between the central flower bed and a slate path
with white, pink and red pinks.
Pinks bear flowers in almost every season even in mid-winter.
Pink is a symbol of modest Japanese women.
There is a Japanese term 'Yamato-Nadeshiko', in which Yamato means Japanese and Nadeshiko means pink.
My wife used to be a Yamato-Nadeshiko :)

ワスレナグサの水色の小さな花は春の庭のお気に入りお花の一つです.
中央花壇と園路の間に白やピンク、赤のナデシコと一緒に咲いています.
ナデシコは一年中、時には真冬でさえも咲いています.
ナデシコは奥ゆかしい日本女性のシンボルで、
大和撫子という言葉もあります.
うちの家内もかつては大和撫子でした(笑)
