Winter Display “Nandina and Fukujuso for Good Fortune”

This mini hanging scroll depicts a sparrow perched on a branch of red nandina berries and another resting on a rock, complemented by yellow Japanese adonis flowers.

In Japan, nandina is regarded as an auspicious plant because its Japanese name, nanten, evokes the phrase “turning misfortune into good fortune.” Sparrows, familiar birds often seen living together, suggest family harmony and prosperity. The Japanese name for Japanese adonis, Fukujuso, contains the characters for “good fortune” and “longevity,” making it a traditional auspicious flower for the New Year.

The vivid red nandina berries, charming sparrows, yellow Japanese adonis flowers, and quietly textured rocks create a warm and harmonious composition. Ideal for display from winter through the New Year season, this artwork brings bright seasonal color and wishes for good fortune into any room.
