2013/05/31 An interval of good weather - - Hydrangea native to Japan
Even though we are in the rainy
season now it was sunny all day long.
When I walked on the seaside I found out the wild hydrangea on the cliff down the road.
This is a native one to Japan and we can see this kind of hydrangea on the coast of Izu peninsula, Boso peninsula, Miura peninsula, Izu seven islands and so on.
This hydrangea exported to China from Japan long time ago, and exported to Europe in 18 centuries.
Nowadays the most of hydrangea which are seen at the many places in Japan are the breed improved in Europe and they were imported to Japan again.
It means this is the original species of the hydrangea which you usually see.
