Unusual bamboo

 

 

 flowers of bamboo ?

 

While I was taking a walk, I found unusual bamboos.

Surprisingly they looked brown.

A person said "After flowers of  bamboo bloomed, they wither up."

So I searched the fact by using an internet.

* The cycle of bamboo is from 60 years to 120 years and after the flowers bloom, all  bamboos lose their vigor and wither.

*Flowers of bamboo are seen all over Japan this year.

*They say it is an unlucky sign, but it isn't right. Seeds of bamboos will grow after that.

*It will take 10 years or 20 years to grow new bamboos.

 

Other bamboos seem to be turning yellow or brown.

I will observe them carefully.
