Flower tree bird, symbol of hometown Konan Ward
Last Updated August 26, 2019
Symbol of Konan Ward
Symbol mark
Sunflower
The motif is the flower "sunflower" of the ward, which is familiar to the inhabitants of the ward.
Like "sunflower" growing vigorously toward the sun, it imagines an open, bright and active ward administration. Each petal expresses the activeness of the ward administration, such as culture, education, welfare, and town planning.
It was established to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the constituency system (1994 and 1994).
Flower of ward
In commemoration of the 10th anniversary of the enforcement of the ward system (1979, 1979), flowers in the ward were recruited from inhabitants of a ward and established.
Sunflower (sunflower)
The sunflower is an asteraceae plant that symbolizes summer, and the magnificent large sunflower is wonderful.
One of the reasons for the selection is that the sunflower, which is bright and at ease under the shining sun, is a flower worthy of symbolizing the Konan Ward.
Kikyo (Kikyo)
Kikyo is a plant of the family Asteraceae, which grows naturally in wilderness in various parts of Japan.
It was often seen in Konan Ward before. It was chosen with the wish of "valuing nature."
Hydrangea (hydrangea)
Hydrangea is a plant of the family Asteraceae.
It was chosen to represent "the sum of inhabitants of a ward" because a number of small petals gathered and became one big beauty.
Trees in Tori Ward
In commemoration of the 25th anniversary of the constituency system (1994, 1994), we established birds and trees of the ward.
In selecting birds and trees in Konan Ward, we asked them to vote for birds and trees appropriate for the Konan Ward, and were selected as "Shijukara" and "Kuroganemochi" after considering the results of theKonan Ward selection committee.
Shijukara (forty sparrow)
Kuroganemochi (black iron)
