Toad lily is a perennial herb with beautiful flowers with distinctive spots in autumn. It is found here and there in the garden, but this summer's heat wave and low rainfall caused most of it to die. This was the first time this had ever happened. Nevertheless, a few remaining places are now producing beautiful flowers. This is one sign that climate change is having a big impact on the plants in the garden.
ホトトギスは秋に特有の斑点のある美しい花をさかせる多年草です。庭のあちこちにありますが、今年の夏の猛暑と少雨で大半が枯れてしまいました。こんなことは初めてでした。それでも少し残った場所で今、綺麗な花を咲かせています。気候変動が庭の植物にも大きな影響を与えている一つのサインなのでしょう。
