In Greece, to welcome & honour Maia, goddess of Spring and eldest of the seven Pleiades, floral wreaths are hung on doors on Protomagia (1 May). They remain until 24 June when they are gathered and burned in bonfires

- a rose 🤔✔️
Ok I thought this was a bit modern and crass, ‘love and beauty’ with a side of a box of chocolates, but actually the rose was in fact closely associated with Aphrodite, and with Adonis, her adopted child/lover 😬
But in art she’s most often seen with myrtle wreaths.

1. San is the only one not wearing wreaths because he made most of them in this picture.
2. Shirakiku is for mourning Mothra. Her wings even show up on Burning G's back.
3. I think it's no need to explain the redbuds on San's brothers.
