COPIEDOrigin
Peach fruit appears in the Kojiki as a talisman that wards off evil (Izanagi flings peaches to escape Yomi), and momo-iro is one of the oldest color words in Japanese, closely tied to that protective symbolism. It came to signal femininity and childhood, an association still visible in Hina-matsuri decor.
