plum blossoms

These are the only plum flowers that were fully blossoming at Kaiakuen Garden in early February. The website says ten percent of the plums on the three-hundred hectare premise were blossoming but that wasn't true. Kairakuen Garden is one of the three renowned Japanese Gardens, along with Kourakuen Garden and Kenrokuen Garden. The silhouette in the background is Kobun-tei House, a traditional Japanese-style house built on the premise. It offers a house tour.
