投稿の詳細: 房切りの風景　Bunch forming of Kyoho grape

房切り前の花穂。
余り良い花穂ではありません。
先端が団子状でしかも曲がって
います。これを房切りすると。

こうなります。

腕を上げっぱなしだと
疲れるので、はしごに乗って
棚の上からやることも
しばしば。棚の上では、
新梢が大海の様に見えます。

これはとび花。
房の中にポツポツと
花帽（キャップ）が飛んで雄しべと
雌しべが出ています。

ある畑への道すがら
車に乗っていても
葡萄の花の香りが
漂って来ています。
いよいよ開花です。

This is the baby bunch before bunch
forming. It is not a good bunch
because there are too my baby berries
at the top of the stem and it is curved.

This is afte bunch forming.

Most of the time, we have to raise
both arms to reach the bunches hunging
from the overhead trellis so it is
very much tiring. Some time we used steps
and do the bunch forming with our arms
below the shoulders. It is easier and
no tiring but you can but the bunch which
are only around you. Above the overhead
trellis, the new shoots with bunches
looks as if it were an endless ocean.

This is the scattered flower. Grapes do
not have flower petal but only stamina and
a bigger pistil. After the cap removes then
stamina and a pistil will appear.

On the way to a Kyoho vineyard, I can smell
the Kyoho grape flower even from a driver's
seat. The flowering time will be starting.
