Pretty flowers can be seen again this year.

The "Dainichi Natsumikan Original Trees" on Qinghai Island are now beginning to bloom.

The "Dainihi Natsumikan Original Tree" is the original tree of Yamaguchi's famous "Natsumikan" (summer orange). Natsumikan flowers around May every year, followed by fruit, which ripens in the following spring.

The original trees are still in the beginning stages of blooming, but the minute trees in the immediate vicinity are all blooming at once.

If you go near the tree, you will softly smell the good scent of citrus. Please come and see the flowers.
