Characteristics

It was named Amaryllidaceae because it blooms from mid-September to late September and just around the equinoctial week. Amaryllidaceae has impressive red flowers, but some have white or yellow petals and can be seen in flower beds under the orchard or in front of the main building in Environmental Activity Support Center. Amaryllidaceae has many nicknames, and it is said that there are hundreds to thousands of people nationwide. Sometimes they are disliked and hated as "dead flowers" and "hell flowers", but sometimes it is a sign of congratulations in the meaning of "manjushadow", that is, "red flowers and heavenly flowers".

Flower language"Sad memories," "Passion," "Independence," "Reunion," "Give up," and "Fear"
