There was the first flower I saw last year at this time.
It is the flower "FUJIAZAMI."
Although it is a flower of a thistle with a huge rose head, since it was very impressive, it has gone to meet this year also.
Then, FUJIAZAMI pickled such a brilliant flower.
FUJIAZAMI is a perennial herbaceous plant of the department of a chrysanthemum, and in a Japanese thistle, a flower with a biggest purplish red color of about 8cm is pickled, and if a stock will become big, it will be set to about 1m.
It is said that this name attached it since many this flower especially to the outskirts of Mt. Fuji large and a part -- seeing in the mountain land of Kanto or Chubu District was seen.
There is a very sharp prickle in the upper part of a leaf or a flower, and although it is the atmosphere which cannot approach easily somewhere, the touch which has BOSABOSA and grown when it comes to flower arrangement will seem to be lovely not at all.
It is how? Isn't it lovely?
This FUJIAZAMI can be seen also on the outskirts of a mountain trail in Mt. Fuji.
This flower is already loved around Asagiri Highland for the time being.
