Manryo (Ardisia crenata) fruits: Kaizo-ji

Manryo (Ardisia crenata) fruits: Kaizo-ji


In the pale afternoon sunlight of autumn, these small plants of various bright colors are adorning an obscure part of the garden in an unobtrusive manner.

The precious beauty of the ruby Manryo fruits is magically enhanced by the vivid ocean-blue of the Rindo flowers.

A cool breeze is gently touching my cheeks and makes me find that this transitional season is gradually passing away and these beauties here will return to nothing before I know about it.

Manryo (Ardisia crenata Sims) fruit and fern leaves in Jochi-ji


In the wintry garden covered with fallen leaves, the crimson fruit of Manryo and the evergreen fern leaves have grown in the hollows of the decaying stump.

The seasons are turning continually and the wheel of life is rotating without stopping.

May the year of 2013 bring all living things a lot of happiness and joys.
