"Aosdiageha" in "Siller Campanulata"

R0033396ELS.JPGR0033408RRSG.JPG May 6th is "Ritsu Summer" in twenty-four season old calendar. 

When the sutra of the sun reaches 45 degrees, it is also called "summer stand" or "summer comes".

The young leaves of the trees in the "Harumi Triton Garden" are lush, and it is an attractive season.

The annual "Mini Garden Guide Tour" takes a walk around the park with the guidance of a green advisor at the hotel pocket plaza "Flowers, Water and Trees".

This month, it was held on the 7th under the theme of "Spring Color". (12:30~12:50 14:30~15:20)

In the "Flower Terrace", the red color of "Venivana Tochinoki", the white color of "Yabudemari" Pink Beauty "" (the so-called "ornamental flower" which began to bloom is white and gradually turns pale pink as it blooms), and the pale yellow color of "Mokkobara".

This time, I learned a lot about seasonal flowers through the Plants Walk, but I took up the situation of Aosji Ageha, which was caught on the spot.

 

"Shirakanpanorata" at the beginning, which decorates the foot of a corner of the flower terrace.

Also known as Tsurigane narcissus, Spanish bluebell.

It is a perennial plant of the genus Hyassin Soides (also classified as the genus Lilyaceae), and is home to many pretty flowers of light purple bell-shaped bell-shaped.

On the other hand, "Aosji Ageha".

In recent years, the larvae are one of the most popular species in the city center, as they eat camphor trees such as Cinnamomum camphora, Japanese bay tree, Nikkei and Yabunnikkei.

Adults are said to occur 2-4 times a year from May to October.

It's time to listen to the "season news" of the "old world swallowtail butterfly Hatsumi" observed by the meteorological observatory.

The wings are black, and the bands with bright blue-green, translucent window-like patterns on the front and rear wings are eye-catching.

The movement is fast, flying around trees and flowers.

"swallowtail butterfly" is rare and usually has the habit of closing the wings and resting.

It is nailed for a short time by trembling the wings in small increments.
