Pittosporum tobira (Japanese Cheesewood) bears creamy white flowers with sweet smell in May. We had grown it for more than ten years in the bluebell garden. Three photographs below were shot three years ago.
トベラは甘い香りのある乳白色の花をつけます.
もう十年以上ブルーベルの庭で育てていました.
下の三枚の写真は3年前の撮影です.

Two weeks ago, the powerful typhoon had come.
It was shaken very badly and it inclined.
It became quite unstable because one third of its base had been decayed.
So, I decided to fell the tree.
二週間前に強い台風が来てひどくゆすられて傾きました.
根本の１/3ぐらいが腐っていたのでひどくぐらつくようになりました.
それで、切り倒すことに・・
Beside it, I made a raised bed for snowdrop.
I planted a hundred bulbs today.
その隣にスノードロップ用のレイズドベッドを作りました.
そして今日、100個ほど球根を植えました.
Dear Poirot
ReplyDeleteIt is sad to have to lose a plant, but then it gives another planting opportunity. I am sure your snowdrop bed will look wonderful.
Best wishes

Dear Ellie
DeleteI have some candidates of flowering shrub after it.
It's enjoyable to think about it.
