Japanese flowers and flowering plants
Biology
Flowers and other plants in japanese. Relevant hanakotoba is included for some plants.
Auto-generated by extracting entries from JMdict with scientific names and filtering for angiosperms. I did a nontrivial amount of hand-checking but theer are still issues that I plan to iron out as I do the deck myself.
Have fun!
