The view from the top of one of the mountains.
Today we went to check the violets on the mountains near Mitake Sta.
Last year we found lots of kinds of violets on this trail, including the hybrid of Viola violacea var. makinoi (Makino Sumire) and Viola eizanensis (Eizan Sumire). It was too late for the flower of that, so we went to there a little earlier this year.
What a luck! We found not only the one we were expecting, but also found another plant of the same hybrid!

Finally we could see the flower of this kind... It was a little too late for the flowers when we found them last year.
Viola x taradakensis var. eizalacea (Kawagishi Sumire).
They were forming a small patch.

It looks pretty similer to the other hybrid we found today; Okutama Sumire, but they were definitely different from each other.
