Did you know the Japanese term for fireworks, hanabi, literally translates as “fire flower”?
I know we use that term the same way in English, occasionally. But there’s still something beautiful about mentioning delicate flowers and all-consuming fire at once, and then making it the one true term, oh my!
Really, though, all types of fireflowers are beautiful. From the fireworks to ones with blazing red petals to beauties like this flower that avidly fill in the space left by a forest fire. All of them have a vivacious nature that’s compelling.
