The Hybrid Violet

Viola phalacrocarpa Viola chaerophylloides f. sieboldiana (Aso Kikuba Sumire). 
The hybrid between Viola phalacrocarpa (Akane Sumire)
and Viola chaerophylloides f. sieboldiana (Higo Sumire).

    Here are the pictures of an interesting hybrid of violet.
It had six flowers blooming this year!

The flowers looks like pretty much like the ones of Viola phalacrocarpa (Akane Sumire).


There were 3 plants.
This one finished blooming.
The leaves are interesting, eh?


The leaves and stems have tiny hair.

Lots of tiny hair in the center of the flower.


Bombylius major (Major bee-fly).


This picture was taken 2 days after I took the ones above.
The colors were already fading and one flower out of six was finishing.

このハーフはほんとに綺麗ですよね~ いつまでも眺めていたくなります。
それにしても、新鮮な状態が短いのでタイミングを掴むのが難しいです。
また来年咲いてくれるといいですね~

本当にあっという間でしたね。
ここからしっかり葉っぱで光合成して養分を
蓄えて来年また咲いてほしいなぁ。
