When I guided in the Nishinomaru-Teien Garden in Wakayama Castle, I noticed Tricyrtis macranthopsis ―a rare plant, came out. These are blooming gracefully around the rocks under the stone bridge. The Japanese name “Joro” came from the “Joro Otoshiyori “―the highest rank female servant in lady’s chambers in a palace. I guess from the color of the flower, she was permitted to wear prohibited noble colors. I hope visitors peacefully enjoy this beauty.
