About dogwood on this street, we just introduced red fruits this month, but now the autumn leaves are more eye-catching.

Some of the dogwoods on other streets in Chuo-ku may have been caused by the salt damage caused by the typhoon, but the dogwood on this street is beautifully colored.

When this autumn leaves are over, during the winter dogwood drops leaves and prepares for spring

Even in late November, the roses at Tsukiji River Iwai Bridge Park are still fine.

It looks like the number of flowers has increased even more than the season of autumn roses.

madamada201803.JPG

In particular, if I thought that salmon pink roses closer to the large ring rather than the middle ring are fine, I introduced this rose that bloomed in the park last year on December 27 () Was

Indeed, as the title at that time, "Fuyusobi" (Winter Rose)

Also, dark red (close to black) medium ring roses were about to bloom from now on.

On the other hand, the vine rose system had a lot of rose hips.

Momijigawa Shintomibashi Park is a park built on the Metropolitan Expressway, beside Shintomibashi Bridge, and during the day it is a place to relax for residents and office workers nearby.

akimomiji201802.JPG

Here, several types of large roses are planted from the middle ring, and this blog was introduced last spring.

akimomiji201805.JPG

The park is now shining with autumn blooming roses.

akimomiji201806.JPG

In other parks in Chuo-ku, the flowers are already over or rose hips, but here, despite the different types, almost all kinds of autumn roses are blooming.

akimomiji201803.JPG

In particular, the red rose in the center of the park (variety unknown) is a large strain, and many velvet-like red petals bloom.

akimomiji201804.JPG

During this season, there are few flowers that bloom, and people tend to look toward the red (yellow) leaves, but this park makes you forget that winter is near thanks to autumn roses.
