Chuo-ku-ku-May edition with birth flowers
Hello. The active activity is Hanes on holidays.
One year has passed since the launch of the "Chuo-ku Touring with Birth Flowers" series last June.
The year I spent so much attention to flowers was a better study than ever before.
This time, based on the photos taken, we will introduce the May birth flowers that can be enjoyed in Chuo-ku.
[Assumptions of this series]
・There are variations in the birth flowers and their flower language assigned to the 365th. In this series, we refer to the birth flower and flower language published in Hibiya Flowerbed's "Birth Flower / Flower Language on the 365th".
・We aim to introduce flowers that anyone can enjoy freely even if they get tired. Therefore, general household gardens, paid gardens, limited-time events, and flowers found in florists are not eligible.
・It will be an introduction to the extent found by the author, so you may actually see more birth flowers.
Look for 31 kinds of birth flowers in May
May 1: Margaret (flower language "secluded love")
@ Harumi Island Triton Square (shooted in early February 2021)
It is also known as a flower of fortune-telling.
Until now, I often saw white margarets, but there are many other colors.
May 2: Shibazakura (flower language "Agreement")
@ Harumi Island Triton Square (shooted in early April 2021)
This time, I didn't focus on the flowers, but I tried shooting so that the feeling of growing like a turf could be conveyed.
"Sakura" is native to North America.
May 4: Shakuyaku (flower language "shameful")
@ Harumi Island Triton Square
Many people may be familiar with the beauty of women, "If you stand up, peony walking is a lily flower if you sit in a peony."
When I visited in April, the flowers had not yet bloomed, but now it may be blooming beautiful flowers.
May 5: Japanese iris (Flower Language: Passion)
@ Akashicho (photographed in June 2020)
When I just started this series, I found it growing behind the signboard of "Tsukishima Passover Site".
I'm looking forward to seeing if it will bloom again this year.
May 11: Tulip (white) (flower language "Wait")
@ Nihonbashi (shooted in mid-April 2021)
I missed taking pictures focusing on white tulips, but it seemed that colorful tulips were bustling in Nihonbashi, where there were fewer people going to the city than usual.
May 12: thistle (Flower language "Independence")
I saw it in my neighborhood the year I moved to Chuo-ku, but my photo was missing.
I would like to introduce it in the next extra edition.
May 13: satsuki azalea (Flower language "Classical")
@Everywhere in the ward
At the time of shooting (March 2021), it was still early for the flowers to bloom, so only the signboard.
However, when I looked at it later, I saw beautiful flowers again this year following the azalea.
May 15: iris sanguinea (flower language "Imagure")
@ Sumida River Terrace (shooted in mid-April 2021)
A flower with a strong presence even in the background of the Sumida River and Kiyosu Bridge.
Unlike the rabbit ear iris wetlands, iris sanguinea blooms on land, and this article will help you learn how to distinguish Shobu, iris sanguinea and rabbit ear iris!
This also led to learning.♪
May 21: Snowflake (flower language "memory")
@ Harumi Island Triton Square (shooted in mid-April 2021)
Because of its lovely cuteness, it's the best favorite among the flowers I found this time.
The Japanese name is "lily lily narcissus" and it has a good scent.
May 28: Aoi Hana (Flower language "Swaying Heart")
@ Everywhere in the city (photod in late May 2021)
At the end of this month, Aoi, also known as a flower that tells the end of the rainy season.
In the context of Chuo-ku, Aoi, the family crest of the Tokugawa family!
Normally, it is easy to think about flowers and history separately, but the family crest incorporates Aoi, wisteria, plums, chrysanthemums, etc.
By examining the origins of such a family crest, you may be able to get a glimpse of how people who lived in Japan hundreds of years ago treat flowers and their thoughts.
Yeah
This time, we were able to find 9 out of 31 birth flowers in May.
As summer approaches, I feel that brightly colored flowers that wake up are increasing.
Even if you walk around the city, you will naturally get energy.
Flowers that could not be covered so far will be introduced as extra at a later date.
