Bamboo: Although we usually associate bamboo with Chinese culture, Japan is actually plentiful with bamboo. The Japanese have used them for warmth, construction, handicrafts, and even in Japanese cuisines because it is so abundant.It signifies strength and prosperity. It also symbolizes purity and innocence. In some festivals, however, they use bamboo and bamboo grass to ward off evil.
 
Gourds: They thus signified happiness or success to people. Their humorous shapes have also always been thought of with affection. There are thus several sayings featuring the word "hyotan". A set of three gourds are a good luck symbol as the sound "san-byoshi sorou" in Japanese. It means a great person all-round. Also a set of six gourds is even luckier, because "mu-byou" means no sickness! Gourds also remind us of Hideyoshi Toyotomi (1537-1598), one of the most well-known historical samurai heroes. Hideoshi's battle ensign was a gourd motif. He would add further gourd motifs to his ensign every time he won a battle. After that, this ensign became a famous symbol of victory, the "Sennaribyoutan" which means one thousand gourds growing on a tree.
