zen's azure spider lily journal entry from nov. 3, 1915. some info from @askbluespiderlily and the corps records book ^_^
Tumblr media
first page:
[drawings of blue spider lilies in shallow or deep water labelled shallow? or deep?]
'only drawn bloomed so I know how to draw spider lilies. ❀'
'they actually look like horsetails.'
[drawing of horsetail. no colour.]
'they still look nice in the ponds unbloomed, though.'
second page:
'I want to go with shallow water because I'd be able to hide them from moonlight with a blanket.'
'I don't think they'd be able to photosynthesize in deep water anyway. the only way I'd be able to hide them is with the lotuses, and I don't think our leader would be very happy with me moving them.'
'I wonder what they mean. they don't seem to show up in my hanakotoba book.'
