Her name means "Blossoms-of- the-Trees-Falling-Princess".[4]

According to the Kojiki she is the spouse of Yashimajinumi and daughter of Ōyamatsumi[1][2]:277–278 and thus and the mother of Fuha-no-Mojikunusunu [ja][2]:277–278 She is an ancestress of Ōkuninushi.[5][2]:277–278

Her sister is Konohanasakuya-hime[6] the volcano goddess worshipped at Sengen shrines[7] and wife of Ninigi[8][9]

While the Kojiki covers this narrative of the ancestry of Okuninushi.[10][11][12]:29–30 The Nihon Shoki on the other hand omits the entire narrative of the ancestry of Okuninushi from Susanoo and has him as a direct son, skipping the section where Konohanachiru-hime is mentioned,[13][12]:29–30 however it references the Kojiki alternative narrative.[14]

The Yu-Gi-Oh! card Chirubimé is based on her.[15]
