Konomi Haruna (Soul Magica)

Konomi Haruna is a supporting character in Puella Magi Madoka Magica IF. She is a Magical Girl from Kamihama who works at a local flower shop. She is the purified Magical Girl form of Gertrude.

Appearance
Konomi has green eyes and orange hair with a single yellow streak. Outside of school, she wears a green dress with a dark green bow around the waist over a white sweater, and has an orange tartan (the pattern seen on flannel shirts) scarf draped over her shoulders. She wears brown leather gardening boots and a brown burette with a flower pattern embroidered on the side.

Konomi's Magical Girl attire sports a two-layer white-and-green dress with brown accents, brown gloves, and a green garter belt on her left leg. She wears a green-and-brown striped bow as a headband and has a white rose in her hair. Her transformed Soul Gem is a green diamond clipped to the top layer of her dress around her stomach area.

Personality
Konomi is kind and works hard for the shop owner, who she respects. She is a great worker, but can at times get distracted by her love of flowers. She is talented at flower arrangement. She is a normally gentle girl, but once relieved of her despair by Madoka's wish, she becomes somewhat moody. Occasionally, she'll isolate herself, with only her Anthonies and roses, and sing quietly to herself.

Etymology

 * The characters of her last name mean "spring" (春) and "name" (名) respectively.

History
One day, Konomi found an ambulance in front of the flower shop, "Blossom," where she works. She learned that the florist had an illness that was difficult to cure and that she might have had to close the shop. Konomi wanted to help but couldn't think of anything to do until Kyubey arrived and offered her a Contract. Konomi wished to cure the florist's illness.

She became the Rose Garden Witch Gertrude after she was rejected by a boy she liked because she "wasn't pretty enough."

Trivia

 * Konomi's canon Witch form in Magia Record is Heidesommer
 * Konomi was chosen as Gertrude's Magical Girl form since many fans theorized her as such prior to her Doppel's release.
