Hot days
continue every day, but speaking of "summer flowers", the salsberg flowers around Tsukiji River Park are beginning to bloom again this year.
When written in kanji, "crape myrtle" is a valuable flower that keeps blooming for a long time during the hot and hot summer.
The name Salsberg means 
that the bark is smooth, so monkeys also slide down (monkey slip).
It seems that Japan has entered the Edo period, and it is said that the name "crape myrtle" appears for the first time in Ekiken Kaibara "Hanafu".
Around Tsukiji River Park, there are sarsberg trees that bloom pink and white flowers.
It is a flower that makes you feel the summer together with Nouzenzura.
