In the Japanese garden of Katsuyama, which was newly established three years ago, a fine white stone which imaged the flow of water was laid, and a rectangular cubic stone and a stone bridge which looked like a waterfall were also coloring the scene.
Row bytes, ume, and bamboo shoots celebrate the best season
From late January, Royalty and early blooming ume are crowded, and around the middle of February various flowers and trees in the garden such as Fukujou and Manzaku have greeted their birthdays and accompany gorgeous items.
"Winter pot" and "cold weather"
The peony has two varieties blooming in early spring and early winter, among which the winter blooming flowering at low temperature is called "cold weather". Because it is greatly affected by the climate, the flower deposit rate is as low as 20% or less, making it extremely difficult to bloom. On the other hand, what is blooming using special cultivation technology that suppresses flowering in cold areas in the spring and summer, regulates the temperature in autumn and blooms in winter is called "winterbottom". In winter with few flowers, "winter pot" spent two years spending the whole year in order to add glamor to the new spring as a lucky flower. The pretty appearance blooming boldly under the battles fascinates the viewers.
