In June, it was almost time to enter the rainy season, but when it comes to the rainy season, it feels like this flower season.
There are quite a few hydrangeas planted on the streets of Chuo-ku, but on the street from Showa-dori to Miyoshi Bridge, bigleaf hydrangea and Hon Hydrangea are planted along with willow trees on both sides.
It's the blue part of the map below.
Regarding the relationship between Chuo-ku and hydrangea, I introduced it in last year's blog in connection with "Siebolt" (attached to the end of the blog), but when I talked about the relationship between Chuo-ku and hydrangea,
There is a "Silver Koi Monument" (Ginza 4-1-2) at the planting right next to the lottery counter Nishi Ginza Chance Center 
near the Sukiyabashi intersection.

It commemorates the big hit song "The Story of Love in Ginza" by duet of Showa big stars Yujiro Ishihara and Junko Makimura, but the anniversary of Yujiro Ishihara's death, July 17 is called "hydrangea anniversary". Says. This is because Mr. Ishihara liked hydrangea flowers before his birth.
"Yujiro Ishihara" = "Season of the Sun
", "Season of the Sun", "Smile in the Sun!" So, when I heard this story because the image of Mr. and the sun was very strong, it seemed to have seen an unexpected side, and it was memorable.
That was the story of the relationship between "Chuo-ku" ⇒ "Silver Koi Monument" ⇒ "Yujiro Ishihara" ⇒ "hydrangea" ⇒ "hydrangea"
