Autumn in Himonya Park

23 Nov, 2009  |  Written by joseph tame  |  under blog

A few photos I’ve just taken in the park outside the house.

Despite it being Autumn, this is actually Sakura (cherry blosssom). The tree is called ‘October Sakura’, and it flowers twice a year (as explained on the sign below)

And, complete change of subject: I wrote this is the air by waving my iPhone around whilst using an app called Led Messages. 13 second exposure. It’s supposed to say ‘Tame Goes Wild’!

    Nice pictures!

    I was intrigued when I saw these “October Sakura” in Osaka last month, (as mentioned here). I had never heard of these before.
    Do you know whether they are specific to Japan?

    I’d never heard of them either until I saw this tree in our local park – I really don’t know any more about them!
