About the summit of Mt,Kurodake~Mt.Ponkurodake
Some Geum pentapetalum are so beautiful red to see.
About Kumonodaira
Most of “Geum pentapetalum” has fluff.
But some of them have very red leaves.
Comparing last year’s post, about “Geum pentapetalum” coloring is later than last year.
But it might change depends on climate.
Weather forecast says it will be 8~9°c at high mountains on August 29th.
So We guess leaves are turning slowly.
