This summer was extremely hot, and many typhoons occurred, and we crossed and crossed Japan, but in late August, it seems that the heat suddenly eased.
Meanwhile, it is Salsberg (crape myrtle) that is still in full bloom.
The origin of the name is "Red flowers bloom for 100 days"
In fact, it seems that it continues to bloom because the buds come out again from the tip of the branch that has bloomed once and blooms.
It is also written as "Saruname" because "the trunk is smooth and monkeys cannot climb."
All photos are salsberg planted along Heisei-dori (map above, pink) along Heisei-dori.
The dark pink is beautiful.
The salsberg on this street is all of this color, and in July of this year, in a blog article introducing the flowering of salsberg around Tsukiji River Park, I wrote that pink flowers seem to be slower than white flowers, but exactly at this time, pink flowers are blooming at the height and well.
