On the previous day of Valentine day, men and women expressed their favor and thanks by various manners such as beautiful flowers, sweet chocolates etc., each other. Of course, tea is one of the best expressions of our favor or positive feelings.
In my office, each one brings their favorites as follows. Thus, a shared desk was filled with various stuff as follows.

Many kinds of teas occupied the bascket, and multi-steeped green teas expressed each greenish color next to colorful chocolates and gerbera.
Lately, flowers became more popular as a present for women from men in Valentine day. Makinohara area is richly cultivated with not only tea plants but also gerbera. Gerbera expresses multihued colors as shown in the figures.
Rich colors due to gerbera and chocolates.

Especially, I prefer white colored one.

A harmony of white and light green.

Flowers and teas provide comfortable aroma and make us relaxed, resulting in joyful chin music over teacups.
As for green teas in Makinohara, the intensity of its aroma is not so high, but its delicate flagrance is slightly sweet and gives us a relief. And its mild taste has a relaxation effect. Green teas made in Makinohara is one of the best candidates as a gift in Valentine day!

P.S.
I realized a plate of Japanese pottery is suit for chocolates unexpectedly.
