夕照に 明日をさだめと 残りバラ

There are three best times to see the roses: “spring roses” that begin to bloom when the cherry blossoms begin to fall, “summer roses” that bloom with hydrangeas, and “autumn roses” that are the forerunners of the autumn leaves season.  Speaking of roses, spring flowers are the most gorgeous and gorgeous.  The life of each flower is short because it blooms at the time when it gets hotter, but it looks gorgeous as a whole because it keeps blooming one after another and it blooms like a bell in one plant. While, autumn roses are lonely because there are only a few flowers that bloom in one plant, such as the return blooms of summer roses and roses that bloom in four seasons, and there is only one flower.  However, each rose is tasteful and rich in fragrance, and the appearance of it blooming and dying is perfect for the image of autumn, and there are many fans of autumn roses.

バラには、桜が散り始める頃から咲き始める「春バラ」、紫陽花と共に咲く「夏バラ」、紅葉シーズンの先駆けになる「秋バラ」の、三回の見頃があります。バラと言えば春の花と言うほど、やはり春のバラが一番豪華で華やかです。だんだん暑くなる時分に咲くので、一つ一つの花の寿命は短いですが、次から次へと咲き続けるのと、一つの株に鈴なりに咲くので、全体的に華やかにみえます。その点、秋バラは、夏バラの返り咲きとか、四季咲きのバラだけで、一株に咲く花の数は少なく、一輪だけと言うのもあって、寂しい感じです。しかし、一つ一つのバラは味わい深く、香りも豊かで、咲き切って枯れて行く姿は、秋のイメージにぴったりで、秋バラのファンも沢山います。
