Notes
This flower is remarkable in that it
blossoms on only one day of the year. This day varies from year to year, but it is always
in the late summer, usually in the month of Magerule. The flower blossoms for that day only. The
next day, all Endyear Jewels die. Their petals dry up and blow away in the wind.
The
Endyear jewel is very difficult to find when it is "out of season", but on the
day of its blooming, anyone can find them.
An herbalist who closely examines an endyear
jewel has a chance of telling when it will bloom. The closer to the day of
blooming, the easier it is to tell. The flower bud undergoes very subtle changes
just prior to blooming.
