Autumn Leaves Lee <Harumi Triton>

[Sam] March 29, 2011 08:30

RIMG2715S.JPG Despite the occasional chills, the soft sunlight is a season that adds warmth and warmth every day.

The trees gradually spread their branches, and the small buds swell little by little, preparing to bloom adorable flowers.

Here at Harumi Triton Square's "Flower Terrace", "Autumn Leaves Li (Benibasmomo)" blooms.

The deciduous Odaka tree of the family Rosaceae improved for ornamental use.

It is also known as "Akabazakura" and "Venice Momo".

In early spring, there are many small pale pink flowers, and the calyx is reddish purple and its contrast is beautiful. I hear that the leaves are reddish purple from the new leaves and are used as flower material.

The flowers are somewhat sparse compared to cherry blossoms, and there is no cut at the tip of the petals.

Is it just the right season to take a walk on the terrace?

Kanhizakura <Sakura's promenade>

[Sam] March 21, 2011 14:16

Kanhizakura (4)S.JPG "Kanhizakura", which is planted on the "Sakura promenade" along Harumi Triton Square and the Asashio Canal, is at its best.

It is a warm cherry tree that blooms before ordinary cherry blossoms in early spring when it is still cold, and blooms bright scarlet or dark pink florets full of branches.

The tree shape is cohesive, the flowers do not open and are bell-shaped, and bloom like a bird.

The calyx tubes and sepals are also scarlet.

It is a species distributed in southern China and Taiwan, etc. It is said that it is also used in Okinawa to declare the flowering of cherry blossoms.

It is sometimes called "Hikanzakura", but it is often referred to as "Kanhizakura" in recent years because it is easily confused with "Hikanzakura".

The yellow carpets woven by 300,000 "canola flower" in a flower garden of about 3,000 square meters (in the materials of the Tokyo Metropolitan Bureau of Construction, "Kurokawa" and "Fushimi") of cold-flowered flowers shine in the spring sunshine.

The adjacent Umebayashi, where flowering was delayed, has finally reached its peak.

Red, light red, light red, aperture, and white flowers in the middle circle of double-flowered, a large double-flowered "Kenkyo", which is said to have been liked by the 11th Shogun Ienari, and a large double-flowered "Kenkyo", which is said to have been loved by the 11th Shogun.

Okanzakura, which tells the spring

[Sam] March 7, 2011 08:54

RIMG2411S.JPG The early blooming Okanzakura (Okanzakura) on the south side of Eitai Bridge, gradually began to bloom.

In the immediate vicinity there is a monument to "Seafarer Education Launch Site".

Okanzakura is said to be a hybrid of Kanhizakura and oshima cherry, and is said to be a large tree with a height of about 10m, and the tree shape spreads greatly. It is also planted on both sides of the east filling.

The light red petals are round and large and have many fine cuts at the tip.

Just the little birds, including Japanese white-eye, came to suck the nectar. It is moving around the twigs.

Okamezakura

[Sam] March 7, 2011 08:51

 

RIMG2347S.JPG RIMG2349RRS.JPG "Akamezakura" of "Ajisai-dori St." in Nihonbashi Honmachi has begun to bloom.

About 40 Okamezakura trees are planted on both sides of Ajisai-dori St., of which several of them began to bloom in front of AIG Nihonbashi Honmachi Building and Eirakuya.

Okamezakura is said to be a hybrid of Mamezakura and Kanhizakura, and is a pale red color and blooms downward.

It is a small variety of cherry blossoms, and it is said that it is suitable for planting small sites because the branches are compact without stretching horizontally.

Breath of Spring <Harumi Triton>

[Sam] March 7, 2011 08:49

Pansy Moran Frill S.JPG Yayoi In March, the buds of the trees began to stand out steadily even during the cold weather, and it was time to feel that spring was nearing.

Here at Harumi Triton Square "Flower Garden" and "Green Garden", the trees that had been removed from the decoration during the winter gradually shifted from their bare form, mixed with early spring flowers, and began to show various flower buds waiting for spring.

On the left is the "Pansy Moran Frill" planted in the "Slope Garden" along the Asashio Canal.
