Marronnier flowering on Ginza Marronnier Street

[Dimini ☆ Cricket] April 28, 2016 12:00

Marronnier on Ginza Marronnier Street has begun to bloom.

I think the flowering is Benibana Tochinoki.

Benibana Tochinoki is a variety made by combining American Akabanana Tochinoki, native to North America, and Western Europe, and is more widespread in Japan than Marronnier.

Around May, a large conical inflorescence is upright at the tip of the branch, with male flowers and bisexual flower.

Marronnier's dark pink flowers, conical, make you feel the arrival of the holiday season and the outdoor season, making you feel excited.
