The Sakura Front goes north to the Kanto region, and it is a sign that spring is coming in earnest, but in the precincts of Tsukuda Sumiyoshi-jinja Shirine, the bokeh of Genpei blooming (blooming) planted beside Kagura Hall is in full bloom.
Bokeh is a deciduous shrub native to China.
"Genpei bloom" refers to red and white (in addition, light red and middle spots <pertures) on a single tree.> It is said that the flowers bloomed separately in the "Genpei Battle" in which the color of the Genji flag <white> and the color of the Heike flag <red> fought in a mixed battle.
It seems that various "blooming" varieties are being produced, but it seems to be the representative variety "Orient Nishiki".
Depending on the year, it is not determined how red, light red, white, and spots bloom together, and it is the mystery of nature that the appearance is different.
In the flowers that bloom all at once, it is a flower that gives a more glossy and distinctive color.
