Pine tree

Pine trees were evergreen trees, very common throughout Rokugan. The Isawa Mori in the Phoenix lands was the largest source of pine in the Empire. Emerald Empire; Fourth Edition, p. 26 They were a symbol of longevity and stamina, and were one of three plants in Rokugan known as Winter's Three Companions because it was capable of surviving through the winter. Way of the Dragon, p. 46 Bonsai pine trees represented fidelity and patience for the Dragon Clan, because the word for “pine” was a homophone for the verb “to wait”. Sword and Fan, p. 180
