2000/08/28
During Spring and Summer, a lot of flowers bloom in Sweden.
They are as if enjoying the short beautiful seasons.
I would like to show you some pictures of them.
Apple flowers bloomed in May, and this is very common in Sweden.
Lilac bloomed at the end of May, and is also common here.
Thisi is laburnum, a kind of a pea. It is called Gullregn in Swedish. It bllomed in June, and got some beans in July, however these beans contains nicotin-like toxin.
This is a kind of autumn bellflower (we call it Rindo in Japanese), but it blooms in late July in Stockholm.
