投稿の詳細: 彼岸花　Spider lilly

お彼岸ですね。
いつもの頃なら満開の彼岸花が
今日はまだほんの一部が咲いているだけ。
葡萄が遅れている理由と同じ理由で
遅れているのか。

この花で思い出すのはやはり
山口百恵の曼珠沙華。

最近朝夕がとても寒くなって
長袖で無いと早朝の収穫は
ちょっと寒すぎです。
そのせいで、葡萄の酸落ちが
進まずにちょっと酸味が
後味に残るのですが、
巨峰を食べてわかりますか？

The autumn equinox is just around
the corner. So-called equinoctial
flower, spider lilly, is supposed to
be in full bloom but only small part of
them has just been flowering. I wonder
if the flowering is delayed due to the
same reason of the delayed ripeness of
grapes.

This flower always reminds me of
Manjushaka sung by Momoe Yamaguchi.

It gets cold in the morning and evening
and I cannot do without long sleeve
clothings when I pick the grapes early
in the morning. Because of this lower
temperature than usual, the acidity of
the grapes is a bit high and you can feel
it when you eat kyoho grapes especially
at the aftertaste.
