History: Chrysanthemum (kiku): Chrysanthemums came to Japan from China during the Nara era—not as a flower for show but rather as a medicine. During the Heian era, the flowers themselves began to be appreciated and designs using the flowers began to appear. By the Kamakura era the chrysanthemum became the personal symbol of the emperor. Because of its beauty, the chrysanthemum has become a favorite flower of the Japanese, even considered to be the national flower. They’ve become symbolic of autumn, long life and an escape from the every day world.
Koi: As the carp swims against the stream, so it is the Japanese youth are expected to fight against all the fierce currents of adversity. The koi (carp) swimming up a waterfall theme dates back to ancient China, where a well-known legend told how any koi that succeeded in climbing the legendary falls (at a point called Dragon Gate on the Yellow River), would be transformed into a dragon. Thus, the koi became a symbol of worldly aspiration and advancement of tenacity of purpose and indomitable courage.
