“Fringed orchid” is one of Japan’s leading orchids that blooms white and neat flowers. The cool blooming at the water’s edge brings coolness to the viewer in the harsh heat.
Fringed orchid（Orchidaceae）
It is a perennial plant that is distributed from Honshu to Kyushu and grows in lowland sunny wetlands. The height is 20 cm to 40 cm. The name comes from the appearance of a Shirasagi flying with its wings spread.
Once common in wetlands around the world, it has plummeted with the development of wetlands and is classified as Near Threatened (NT) in the Ministry of the Environment’s Red Data Book.
In Rokko Alpine Botanical Garden’s wetland plant area, we have set up an area that reproduces the wetland that once existed on Mt. Rokko, and in addition to Egret flower, we display Mt. Rokko native plants such as Sawagikyo and Penthorum. The white egret flower of our garden is expected to be enjoyed until the end of August.

Hoshinoya Tokyo, a Japanese-style inn located in Otemachi, Tokyo, will again this year host the “New Year Kabuki Stay” program, a two-day and one-night stay from January 5 to 26, 2024.
For people living in Edo, one of their New Year’s pleasures was to watch Kabuki, and it was a chic way to spend the New Year. Theatrical teahouses supported this way of enjoying Kabuki. In addition to arranging tickets to the theater, the teahouses delighted patrons by providing a complete range of services, including plot notes, tea, sweets, makunouchi box lunches, and snacks and drinks (*1). Hoshinoya Tokyo offers a stay to celebrate the New Year with hospitality similar to the theatrical teahouses of the time.
