The relation of the flower of Kitano Tenmangu and a plum,
In Kitano Tenmangu, if the garden of a plum is united with the precincts of a temple,
the flower of about 50-kind the plum said 2000 can be seen.
Although it seems that it does not go with full bloom altogether since there is an early bloom late flower,
probably, the scale will still be first in Kyoto.
It is said that the history of the flower of a plum is old, and it is China native,
and was already going into Japan at the Yayoi period.
The Michizane Sugawara public composed a poem.
"-- it all obtains and is -- red -- a color -- flower [ ] of a plum --
I would like to have come to attach also to my face -- " -- it seems that there was a flower of a plum
from that time since poetry was hung up over the two-storied gate.
Moreover, probably, that the tree of a plum like this is planted in Kitano Tenmangu
also had the implications offered to the Michizane Sugawara public known also for having loved the plum
supremely by the plum lover.
