2013/06/03 A long intermission of rainy season
The Japan Meteorological Agency announced that
Tokai area including Shimoda got into the rainy season on May 28th, but
now we are in the long intermission.
The weather forecast says the sun
will stay in a next week and it's getting hotter and hotter over the
weekend.
By the way, I took this picture on the slope on the other
side of Pension Sakuraya.
The flowers of hydrangea are changing its
color and getting more beautiful.
I love this stage of coloring better
than full colored and full bloomed hydrangea.
2013/05/31 An interval of good weather – – Hydrangea native to Japan
Even though we are in the rainy
season now it was sunny all day long.
When I walked on the seaside I
found out the wild hydrangea on the cliff down the road.
This is a
native one to Japan and we can see this kind of hydrangea on the coast
of Izu peninsula, Boso peninsula, Miura peninsula, Izu seven islands and
so on.
This hydrangea exported to China from Japan long time ago, and
exported to Europe in 18 centuries.
Nowadays the most of hydrangea which
are seen at the many places in Japan are the breed improved in Europe
and they were imported to Japan again.
It means this is the original
species of the hydrangea which you usually see.
