The recent cold temperatures appear to have accelerated the coloring of the Arctous alpinus var.
japonicus. At the community of Arctous alpinus var. japonicus near the Itagaki junction, which each year colors with a festoon-like appearance, about 50% to 60% of the leaves have turned. Its best viewing season is not far off.
