Currently, an exhibition entitled "Let's see Chuo-ku from Space" is being held at the Chuo Ward Environmental Information Center exhibition space in the Kyobashi Environmental Station on the 6th floor of Tokyo Square Garden in Kyobashi 3-chome.

The event period is from Sunday, April 1 to May 30 (Wed).

The time is from 9:00 to 21:00, so it's okay to stop by on your way home.

This is supported by the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA), where satellite photos of Chuo-ku and methods for observing the global environment from space are displayed on panels and models.

The explanation of the panel was easy to understand, and the model was real and very interesting.

This exhibition is also being held during GW, so it would be nice to stop by with your family.

In addition, we received your consent regarding photography in the exhibition space.

The above exhibition started on April 11 as part of the 110th anniversary of the Takashimaya Art Department's founding, and immediately came to the museum on the first day.

　

As you all know, Mr. Kura Suzuki is a ceramic artist representing Hyundai Shino, who was certified as an important intangible cultural property holder (living national treasure) of Shino in 1994. The exhibition at Takashimaya has been a new exhibition for the first time in nine years since 2009, not only Shino, but also Seto black, vases, and books. This time, the subtitle "Shigahi, Become Nature" is a word in Basho's "Oi no Kobun", and it seems that "easy flow", which is said to be the characteristic of Basho haikai, was born.

　

There are many works with different tendencies from the past, and when you slowly look at "If you can buy it, this is good", the person in charge said, "Please pick it up", and the words are sweet and powerful When you put a large bowl on your hand, there is no weight that you can imagine from the size of the appearance, and "The green looks like it looks like it looks like it looks like it." How delicious it will be with this," he sighed. I was able to talk a little with my teacher, and it was a happy day. If you don't have the luck of the lottery, you can't buy it, but I'd like to see it again just by looking at it.

A new street tree seedlings are planted on the west sidewalk of Ginza Chuo-dori.

Seedlings were planted on the sidewalks of 1-chome, 2-chome, and 3-chome across the Ginza 2-chome intersection where my commuting route, Ginza Marronnier Street and Chuo-dori, intersect.

This new street tree is said to be a wig tree.

Wig is a tree commonly found as a park or street tree, and is a deciduous tree that leaves yellow in autumn.

The trunk is straight, fast growing, and seems to be about 20m high.

The heart-shaped circular leaves are cute, aren't they?

By the way, the current street tree on Chuo-dori is yew.

Yew is an evergreen coniferous tree with a beautiful trunk extending straight and a beautiful conical shape.

In the past, the theory that yew was used to make a shak used by high-ranking people using yew wood, and that yew wood was much reder (= scarlet) than other wood, There is a theory that "the best scarlet" changed from "scarlet" to "one scarlet".

In the future, the west side of 1-8 chome and the east side of 4, 5, and 6 chome are all turned into wig street trees.

I'm looking forward to seeing the streets of Ginza become a pleasant street with lots of greenery for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.

 

 

　On April 6, the Tokyo Regional Meteorological Observatory announced that one of the biological seasonal observation information, "Flowing of Noda Fuji", was observed.

It is said that 15 days earlier than normal and 13 days earlier than last year.

"Fuji" is a vine deciduous leaf Kimoto of the legume family. The fragrance is fragrant, the spikes hang down and shaken by the wind, and it is a gorgeous and elegant flower shape. In endemic species Japan, there are Nodafuji and Yamafuji, and "Fuji" generally refers to Nodafuji.

In the Hamarikyu Onshi Garden, wisteria trellis are set up on the site of Yan Liaokan, "Small-shaped island" in the middle of "Oden Bridge", etc. Most of them are called Yamafuji, but the northern end of "Oden Bridge" In the wisteria trellis, a flower-shaped "Yae black dragon", which is different from the commonly seen "Fuji".

It is a unique variety of double-flowered varieties with remarkable stamens, has volume, and has a different taste.

 

 

There are many things you don't notice at all, even in places where you usually walk.

At present, Fuji is in full bloom inside the fence of the Metropolitan Expressway Toshin Beltway, near the congratulatory bridge from the middle of the congratulatory bridge and Mannen Bridge on the map above, near the congratulatory bridge.

There was a wisteria tree in such a place

Fuji is a vine deciduous tree of the legume family, and generally blooms from late April to early May with a long ear-like inflorescence hanging down.

When it comes to where this wisteria grows, it looks like it grows through the fence from the outside of the fence, as shown in the photo above.

Fuji seems to be a favorable plant that prefers places where direct sunlight shines, and this place faces southeast, why did it bloom a little earlier than other Fuji?

By the way, the view from the Konwavir side is the best.
