Hamarikyu Garden Yae-zakura

[Silver] April 22, 2012 11:01

Hello everyone. Today we will show you the flowers of the Hamarikyu Gardens, especially the stunning Yae-zakura.

Enter the garden and in front of Shinsenza Kamoba. From the left you can see "fringed iris", the yellow flower in the center is "Japan globeflower", and the white flower is a wild strawberry. (All photos are as of April 21.)

The bridge to the teahouse in Nakajima is under restoration. However, splendid cherry blossoms are blooming on the left side of the embankment.

Then, let's walk on the outside promenade. "Fugen elephant" at the foot of Mt. Fujimi.

If you follow the road, you can see Yae-zakura such as Sekiyama and Kazuha.

And some elegant sweet scent drifts. It's "Surugadai smell."

Then, about 30 meters before the seaside bridge is the rare Yae-zakura, such as Gyoiko, Sekiyama, Turmeric and Kazuha.

I think the best time to see peony is until mid-May, but is Yae-zakura until April 27?

Please go out and enjoy it. For inquiries, please contact Hamarikyu Garden at 03-3541-0200.
