Plum Blossom

The blossom of the plum, named by its Japanese name Ume in the cited list. THIN ROW, stated plainly: the only attestation is membership of a list of flowers "most used in traditional paintings", bridged to tattooing by the same page's closing statement that these images are taken up by tattoo artists. No source states a meaning, so no can_symbolize edge exists. BRIDGE AMBIGUITY, recorded after review (T11.8b): the cited page names this flower only inside a list qualified as flowers that "are among those most used in traditional paintings" — a claim about PAINTING, not tattooing. The only sentence on the page that reaches tattooing is "These same images are taken up, and re-proposed depending on the interpretation, by tattoo artists", and its subject is the pronoun "These same images", separated from the flower list by three intervening paragraphs on 18th-century pattern books, ikebana, manga and anime, and kodama tree spirits. Whether the pronoun reaches back to the flowers or only to the nearer material is not determinable from the page. The row is retained because the flower is named verbatim on a tattoo publication writing about tattoo iconography, but confidence is dropped to unverified and review_status to draft to record that the tattoo-domain attestation rests on that pronoun.
