A grim euphemism referring to the pervasive and often hidden danger of unexploded ordnance (UXO) in various Asian countries, particularly those impacted by the Vietnam and Korean Wars. The term highlights the significant number of dormant landmines and other explosive remnants of war that continue to litter landscapes, posing a severe threat to civilian populations. The "flower" aspect of the phrase alludes to the appearance of certain mine triggers or fuzes that protrude from the ground, bearing a superficial resemblance to a blooming flower, thus deceptively blending into the natural environment. This term underscores the deadly legacy of conflict and the ongoing humanitarian crisis caused by these unseen hazards.
"In some parts of Southeast Asia, a walk through the fields can be a real minefield of 'Oriental Flowers,' though thankfully, they rarely have much of a fragrance."
