Japanese apricot tree & bamboo branches.  The juice of Apricots or Ume in Japanese is mixed with alcoholic drinks in Japan to add sweetness.  The juices were also used in medicine to kill the bitter taste.  The Apricot is seen in Japanese poetry as a symbol of spring.  They were more popular than cheer blossoms up till the Heian era.  Eating them in the morning will bring you luck.
Because of its strength bamboo is a symbol of prosperity and strong will.  Also because bamboo is so straight and simple it is also symbolic of purity and innocence.
