Blossom Day

Blossom Day is a celebration of emotions and emotional honesty towards others. Both negative and positive emotions are praised, so long as they’re truthful.

Traditions
Often flowers are given to others to present emotions that the giver feels towards them. Specific flowers have different meanings, with their meanings being reversed if they are dead.

Either a single flower or a bouquet is common to give to a person. In bouquets the most prominent flower is the strongest emotion the giver has towards the receiver.

While giving living or dead flowers is the most common gift to exchange a person may also give objects that resemble specific flowers, such as painting, carvings, scented oils, pressed flowers, etc. These alternate gifts are commonly sent over long distances due to their longevity compared to living flowers.

Some inhabitants send flowers to their respective rulers, which are sorted into a structure outside their palaces, people occasionally add their own flowers with a message tag on the stem for their ruler.
