Explanation and Etymology - (杉) sugi
"Sugi" is a Japanese word that means "Japanese cedar" or "Cryptomeria". The word is composed of two kanji: "木" which means "tree" and "東" which means "east". It is believed that the name "Cryptomeria" was given by European botanists who discovered the tree in Japan, as the wood of the tree was used to make coffins and therefore considered sacred. The tree is native to Japan and is one of the most important species in Japanese culture, often used in gardens and parks.
