a Molotov flower basket, the delicate Japanese name for the " bread basket" or self-scattering cluster of bombs,which means when the atomic bomb attacked Hiroshima its fire was looked like a flower and Dr. Machii reffered this with a molotov flower basket.

The Molotov flower basket is how people use to name when a bomb was dropped because the way a bomb explodes.
