hananonaアプリでは、シデコブシじゃないかと言っていましたが。
この木は崖沿いにいて幹がツタっぽいもので巻かれています。数ある枝が縦横に、言い方が良くないですが不格好に伸びています。今まで特に気に留めることが無かったのですが今年、白い花を咲かせているのに気がつきました。
夕日を浴びてオレンジに色づく小さめの、花や白いままの花々が、暮れていく空を背景に、「花が咲くとは思ってなかったとか？」と皮肉を込めて挨拶をしてくれているような気になりました。
いやはやいやはや・・・。
背の高い木で見ていくと梅のあとは桜だと、季節を単純に切り取っているジブンがイヤになります。合間にはコブシやモクレンの白や紫の花もあるのです。
hananona app told me it was Magnolia stellata, but not sure.
The tree is at around the bottom of a small cliff and wrapped by something like ivy. Many branches lengthen in different directions that wound not look good. I haven't taken notice to them very much but this year, I found that they have been having much white flowers.
Some of the flowers were shining by receiving the light of evening sun and the others were still white. There was the evening sky behind them then would have told me like this, "Didn't you know we have white flowers in early spring before Sakura?".
Oh, well....
In japan, seeing taller trees in spring, at first, Japanese plum, next is Sakura(cherry blossom) but between them, there is Manolia(s), we can see their white of violet coloured flowers....
