アジサイ Ajisai. Tucked in along sidewalks and houses, highlighted in beautiful gardens and this most special place.
For the month of June this Shrine cultivates these amazing blooms,
then they gather and form them into these amazing floating floral sculptures.

We came for the flowers but also found these beautiful spots. Full of details, nestled in among the flowering bushes.
I love the dedication and hard work that goes into supporting the trees, vines and shrubbery in Japan. Holding up these elegant hundreds of year old pieces. Not to mention, the number of workers dedicated to weeding, feeding (and probably chatting) to the thousands of plants in these gardens.
And these colors! And textures! I never knew the vast variety we would find!
Gathering more inspiration for our garden back home.
