It was in 2013 that I planted the blue flower bed with the chaste tree. It's already been eight years, and it's getting stronger. I cut it down to about 50 cm from the ground every fall, but it grows its branches in early summer and produces cool light blue flowers in summer.
ブルーの花壇にセイヨウニンジンボクを植えたのは2013年で、すでに8年経って、勢いが強くなっています。毎年秋には地面から50センチメートルぐらいに切り詰めますが、初夏に枝をグングン伸ばして、夏に水色の涼しげな花を咲かせます。
The year before last, we planted a seedling of the chaste tree in the center of the central flower bed. Last year it grew much bigger and produced a few flowers, and this year it is getting even bigger. The variety is a little different and the flowers look a little different.
一昨年には中央花壇の中央にセイヨウニンジンボクの苗を植え付けました。昨年はだいぶん大きくなって花を咲かせ、今年はさらに大きくなってきています。少し品種が異なり、花の感じが少し違います。
In the central flower bed, many Gaura flowers are blooming.
中央花壇ではガウラの花もたくさん咲いています.
I do love your Chaste Tree and really need to find some space for one in our garden. It has such wonderful blue flowers and nice shaped leaves. It would make a good addition.
ReplyDeleteInteresting that the seed you planted is sligthly different to the mother plant.
I'm sorry for the misunderstanding, I wrote it a little badly. The one in the central flower bed was not a seedling from a seed, but a newly ordered young tree. The two shrubs seem to be of slightly different varieties.
