The flowers have become highly conspicuous from the area past the 9th Station.
In particular, the number of Anemone narcissiflora var. japonomonantha continues to increase just below the peak, and the Weigela middendorffiana that form large communities every year are budding in considerable numbers.
Although their progress will depend on good weather in the days ahead, I found some Weigela middendorffiana already blooming during my descent.
It will not be much longer until the 9th Station becomes alive with flowers.
