Beautiful Flower Ｓeason

We have flower season here in Yatugatake. Red and pink primroses are blooming at the grass land around the foot of the mountain. I also find a kind of orchid, which reminds me of a face of Buddha.

八ヶ岳山麓は、花の季節を迎えた。日当たりの良い草地で、桜草と九輪草は仲良く花を咲かせている。少し山に入ると、ホテイランがふくよかな布袋様の顔を思わせるように咲いている。

Flowers of Wild Pears

We have a beautiful season of young leaves of deciduous trees. We are able to find white, small flowers of wild pears in the forest near our house.

森の木々の新緑が美しい季節となった。道路脇にたくさん生えている小梨には小さな白い花がたくさん咲き始めた。

Late Cherry Blossoms

About one month later than Tokyo, we have cherry blossoms season here in Tatesina. This mornig I visited Shokoji Temple, where we were able to enjoy the wonderful flowers.

連休後半の祭日、蓼科聖光寺に出かける。境内の桜が満開である。遠く残雪が豊かな八ヶ岳を背景に桜の花が美しい。
