Bell of Odaishi temple
It has been very cold for a few days but I can see signs of spring here and there.
I saw a Ume blossom at the precincts of Odaishi temple.
And I found cherry buds , full bloomed Roubai and so on while I was taking a walk near my house.

Concerning Roubai(臘梅), Do you know why we named the plant Roubai ?
According to Makino's illustrated flora,
The flower of Roubai looks like the wax of honey bee(蜜臘）.
So, Rou(臘) of Roubai is Rou(臘）of honey
bee wax.
Thank you very much for your comment.
I'm also waiting for the spring arrival.
Roubai really looks like the wax of honey bee.
It's a nice name!
