The image of "leaves and blossoms of Staphylea bumalda DC".

Staphylea bumalda DC is called "mitsu-ba-utsu-gi(ミツバウツギ or 三葉空木)" in Japanese.

"mitsu-ba" means "three leaves"

and "utsu-gi" means "hollow tree" or "hollow stalk".

"ba" is a variant of "ha(葉)"meaning "leaf".

"gi" is a variant of "ki(木)"meaning "tree".

I like this leaf because it looks like that a person is spreading his or her hands.
