What color is the mountain blowing color?

Yellow.

"The mountain wind is bright with a reddish yellow color, which is the color of Tang Di petals".

In Japan, the flowers in Tang Di are called "mountain blowing", that is, mountain blowing flowers. Tang Dihua, also known as Tang Dihua, Feng Tanghua, Plum Blossom in Yellow and Egg Yolk Flower, is native to China, and likes warm, humid and semi-cloudy environment, and is not strict with the soil. Widely distributed in southwest China, South China, North China and Japan.

The name of mountain blowing color comes from Heian period, and it is one of the few traditional Japanese colors named after yellow flowers.

China is the place of origin, but the Japanese are obviously more obsessed with this plant, so that westerners think that it is the place of origin in Japan, so the scientific name is Kerria japonica. According to legend, the name Blowing Mountain comes from the way flowers sway in the wind on the mountain.
