Before the last post that I made 3 days ago, I’ve
left this blog silent for almost 9 months. So, I try to post photos from the
places that impressed me during the time.
Higanbana, called Red spider lily in English, is one of my favorite flowers between late-summer and early-autumn. In the Tokyo area, there are numbers of spots that you can enjoy clumps them. Among all, I chose to go to the Buddhist temple called Josen-ji in last September. Josen-ji is located in Yamato-City in Kanagawa-pref., about 40km away from the heart of Tokyo. At their garden, there are religious statues all around in the densely planted woods. Colors of the red spider lilies beautifully stands out in this scenery.
Seems butterflies like to drink the essence of the flowers, but
humans can not imitate this act. Lycoris is poisonous for humans once being eaten.
Josen-ji is not all about red spider lily, they have other eye-catching automn plants such as Maple and Susuki.
