    The tree is 1 to 2 meters tall.

    クチナシ

    There are various theories as to the origin of its name, but one well-known theory is that it came to be called “gardenia” because its fruit does not split open when ripe and its mouth does not open.

    The fragrance of the gardenia is one of its main attractions. I love it!

  • recommended My Japan season ⭐️立夏 Rikka Lovely season

    Rikka is one of the 24 Sekki (24 seasonal divisions).

    Nijushisekki divides the spring, summer, fall, and winter seasons into six segments each, and the year is divided into 24 segments, each with a name that serves as a guide to the season.

    For example, the first Sekki before Rikka is “Kokuu,” which means rain moistens grains, and the next Sekki after Rikka is “Shoman,” which means all things are full in heaven and earth.

    Rikka may refer to the day on which summer begins, or it may refer to the 15 days from Rikka to the day before the next Sekki, Shomitsu.

    Rikka(立夏) in 2024: …..May 5 or May 5 – May 19

    It is said that Ogai of old days took a walk
    While walking in the quiet residential area of today
    You will notice that there are many hills.

    That’s why it’s called Dangozaka.団子坂
