At the Kagawa Prefectural Gardening Center in Takamatsu City, the red and white plum blossoms are in full bloom.
114 ornamental plums of 80 types are planted in the plum garden of the Kagawa Prefectural Horticultural Research Center in Konan-cho, Takamatsu City.
It is said that the flowering was about 5 days later than last year because there were many cold days and little rain, but the early-flowering double-flowered ume, which is in full bloom, has a deep double-flowered red color. The petals are blooming like waves.
On the 15th, staff members checked the flowering status of plum blossoms from the morning, and visitors enjoyed the arrival of spring by watching the flowers while taking measures against infection such as wearing masks and taking a walk. I was there.
Rika Iguchi of the Kagawa Prefectural Horticultural Research Center said, "As usual, the colors are beautiful and the scent is drifting, so I want you to take a leisurely stroll while taking measures against the new corona."
The plum blossoms at the Kagawa Prefectural Gardening Center can be enjoyed until the end of this month.
