    Trumpet Creeper (Campis Grandiflora)

    わが庭に 咲きゐたりしは 朱色の 凌霄花の 記憶懐かし

    2014, Japan. More details
    The vermilion trumpet creeper
    That blossom in my garden
    Brings fond recollection


    There are many cypress and cedar trees in the area I live now but it is difficult to find bright vermillion colors. After leaving the leprosarium and returning to the outer world, while walking with my father we noticed a beautiful trumpet creeper by the roadside that caught our eyes. I found the same flower at a florist and I planted it in my garden. The beautiful vermilion colored flowers that bloom in my garden always reminds me of, with nostalgia, the time when I went to visit my hometown.
