The peony is the flower of the hearth, the peony is the flower of the furo

A single flower is placed in the tea room.
Just that alone lightened the atmosphere,
The seasons can sometimes make a quiet appearance.

Peonies and peony.
Both flowers are gorgeous and breathtakingly beautiful,
At a tea ceremony, the tea you choose will naturally vary depending on the season.

Peonies are flowers that symbolize the arrival of spring.
On the branches of the trees, large and abundant flowers bloom,
The petals fall silently, one by one.
The leaves are dull and slightly dry to the touch.
There is something calming about the way they bloom moistly in the cool air, reminiscent of furnace season.

When it's still cold in the mornings and evenings,
When the steam rising from the hearth meets the dignified appearance of the peony,
The tea room exudes a deep sense of serenity.
It's like a sadness at the end of spring.
There's a certain vestigial beauty to it.

On the other hand, peonies are herbaceous flowers.
With soft stems and fluffy flowers,
It blooms lightly in the early summer light.
The leaves are thin, glossy and full of freshness.
The sight has a refreshing feel that is perfect for the brazier season.

Once the peonies have finished blooming, they fall from the ground, whole flower.
Its purity seems to herald the beginning of the heat,
It also looks as if a breeze is gently passing through the open tea room.
The sound of the brazier, the shape of the wind, and the scent of the peony...
Time to blend into one.

The peony is the flower of the hearth, the peony is the flower of the brazier.
That is what has been passed down,
It's not just the difference in the blooming time,
The atmosphere and the presence of the flower
I feel that this is because they are deeply connected to the world of tea ceremony in each season.

Tools, flowers, and the seasons.
When these three come together,
The atmosphere in the tea room becomes refined.
For such a moment, today too, I put my heart into it.
