History

Flowers originally started out under the name Petit Flower (プチフラワー, Puchifurawā), which was also published by Shogakukan. Petit Flower was founded in 1980 as a quarterly magazine, and became defunct in March 2002. It was relaunched as Flowers in April 2002. Before ceasing publication, Petit Flower serialized a number of works by Moto Hagio, including Iguana Girl, Mesh, Marginal, and A Cruel God Reigns.
