Ancient people said that a Japanese nightingale sews bamboo hats with plum blossoms. Mr. Basho looked at dropping a cameria flower during hearing song the bird, and must associate that fiction.
A cameria flower not plum blossoms, the former is similar to a bamboo hat more.
The other day, i took a picture of a real camellia flower, which was really beautiful.
What color did Mr. Basho look at?
