時空の旅わくわく日記

今年の彼岸花は、例年より早くに咲き始めたような気がしました。例年ですと 9 月 20 日頃突然咲き始める様な気がしていましたが、道沿いの彼岸花の写真は 2022 年 9 月 14 日に撮ったもので、既にだいぶ咲いてます。彼岸の頃には咲き終わるのかなと思っていると、そのまま咲き続け、土手の斜面一面に咲いている彼岸花は、 9 月 28 日に撮ったものです。どちらの写真も荒川左岸、秋ヶ瀬橋の近くで撮ったものです。

Higannbana or equinox flower this year seem to have begun to blow earlier and kept blossoms longer than usual. I took photos of the flower on the road Sptember 14 and the flower on the slope on September 28.

Lycoris radiata, known as the red spider lily, red magic lily, corpse flower, or equinox flower, is a plant in the amaryllis family, Amaryllidaceae, subfamily Amaryllidoideae. Originally from China, Korea, and Nepal, it was introduced into Japan and from there to the United States and elsewhere. It is considered naturalized in Seychelles and in the Ryukyu Islands. It flowers in the late summer or autumn, often in response to heavy rainfall. The common name hurricane lily refers to this characteristic, as do other common names, such as resurrection lily; these may be used for the genus as a whole.
