Both are harbingers of spring and are considered welcoming. Cherry trees bloom in early spring,when it is still cold. Tiny flowers appear without leaves,which arrive later in the year. This unique showing is seen as brave and inspiring hope,symbolic of the strength that comes from surviving a harsh winter,and the good fortune that comes with strength of character. In Chinese culture,the color red is very important. Red attracts good fortune and frightens away bad fortune. According to legend,the Chinese people were being terrorized by an enormous beast called the Nian,translating to,¡°Year¡± in English. The Nian would appear every New Year's Day,the first day of lunar calendar. Nian would devour the people's crops,livestock and even children. One New Year's Day,the people saw two things. Nian would not eat children wearing red,and some firecrackers frightened Nian. Nian fled before destroying everything and the people decided to prepare.

Susho is a 2500 year old family tradition, with a unique and fascinating history. Lotus flowers, or Chinese water lilies, grow in muddy ponds, close every night and open again at dawn, pristine and pure. In Feng Shui, lotus flowers are a powerful symbol of purity, one of the Eight Auspicious Symbols of Buddhism. In Buddhism, lotus blossoms symbolize the true nature of reality, the outward manifestation of inner beauty. Specifically, the lotus symbolizes the Buddha Guanyin. Although there are many conflicting stories about the origin of Guanyin, Guanyin is the symbol of purity, gentleness, compassion and mercy. One of the legends about the immortal Guanyin is she chose to manifest as woman with a thousand eyes and a thousand arms, so she could observe the suffering of the world and use her arms to help and comfort. Many Christians have a similar view of the Virgin Mary. Guanyin was born of a lotus, emerging from the mud clean and unspoiled, a completely natural beauty, pure and innocent. The lotus symbolizes purity, generosity and high status, royalty. The lotus is the mother of Guanyin and has similar qualities and so, often represents her.

In Chinese symbology, irises are the dancing spirits of the early part of summer, and the petals are symbolic of butterfly wings, free and flying in the wind. Irises are called ¡°Purple Butterflies¡± Irises are characterized as inspiring faith, hope, wisdom and valor. Centuries ago, when Susho began to evolve from home furnishing and clothing, the Emperor and his court wanted wall art to decorate their palaces. The aristocrats favored natural scenes, wanting to capture the detail and texture of flora and fauna. Susho artists learned to please the taste of the elites, by making natural scenes as realistic as possible. Symbolically, the images were meant to permanently capture the essences and benefits of the subjects. Even an Emperor cannot keep an iris alive forever, but capturing its soul in silk will make it a captive, eternally.
