People who are too shy to work up the courage to say "I Love You," or at least want a little surprise, have a new option: a bean plant that sprouts to read a special message.

对于那些因害羞而没有勇气说出“我爱你”，或想送出惊喜的人们，现在有了新的选择：盆栽的豆芽种子，这种盆栽的豆芽种子发芽后，会显示出特别的祝福语。

Japan's second largest toy maker Takara will on February 10 start nationwide marketing of the gift cans, which hold soil and the small plant bearing a message that sprouts up in about five days.

日本的第二大玩具商Takara 在2月20号时会在全国范围内销售这种盆栽豆芽。这种盆栽豆芽在五天后会发芽并显示出特别的信息。

It offers six different messages, which are inscribed through a laser beam, with one side of the bean carrying words such as "I Love You" and "Good Luck!" and the other side a smiley face.

这种祝福语是通过激光在豆芽种子的一边上预先用刻上多种语句如“我爱你”和“祝你好运”等。而另一边刻上的是一张微笑的脸。

Another toy maker, Tomy, offers its own version of message beans set in a calcium-made white egg that "hatches" soon after it is put in water.

另一个日本的Tomy公司也推出概念相似的吉祥鸡蛋，钙制的白色鸡蛋壳里裹埋了豆芽种子， 在放入水中后，鸡蛋很快会“ 孵出”祝福语来。

"You can have the fun of fortune telling as you don't know what message will come out until the bean sprouts," Tomy said, adding the egg would also be suitable for a gift as this is the Chinese year of the cock.

Tomy公司表示：“就如预测运程，直到种子发芽破壳而出前，都不会知道刻字内容是什么。”因为今年是鸡年，吉祥鸡蛋也可以在春节时的好礼物
