Shower after a very long time

2010-08-25 | weather


Morning glory

Hot days are continuing and we hadn't had rain for about forty days here.
Farmers who are growing vegetables are having trouble of watering them.
So we were longing for rainfall.
This evening, we had a shower for about thirty minutes.
Flowers, plants and trees seems to be glad to have water as well as farmers.
Besides it became cool a little.
It'll be cool little by little from now.
I'm longing for coming of cool fall !

According to a dictionary, The name is 牽牛花.
牽牛 is ヒコ星.

I didn't know another name of 朝顔.
I think 牽牛花 is a very nice name.
It's very romantic !

By the way, I hear 朝顔 meant ヘチマ in old era.

In Manyou Era, One of 7 grasses in autumn was Asagao.
At that time, Asagao was considered as 桔梗, notヘチマ.
