What is Japan's traditional color "Tsurumoegi"?

Tsurimoegi is a yellowish-green color with a strong yellowish tinge, and is halfway between Tsuruguiro and Moegi. The colors make you feel the life of the plants and trees, as if they embody the sounds of beautiful words. According to the Edo period dyeing manual ``Tekan Design Bushiyo,'' it is written as ``Hiwamoegi Kana Asa Midori,'' and it was also called Asamidori. It is a color that beautifully enhances the look of your face, makeup, and the color of your obiage, and is said to have been widely used around the mid-Edo period.

Hiwamoegi = Hiwamoegi

Color names with a crane in them include 鶸iro and 鶸cha. ``Tsuru Moegi'' is pronounced as Hiwamoegi.
