FUJI MATSURI



I once had a book of Chinese Fairy Tales, and one tale was of The Princess of Wisteria Wood. The illustrations were just beautiful. Since then I've love wisteria - can't really say I love the scent, but I love the flower and the colors.  Just today I learned that the Japanese have a wisteria festival,  fuji matsuri, that follows the cherry blossom festival, sakura matsuri.

Check Garden Design for more about wisteria and this wisteria tunnel, and check my blog for my piece on the Cherry Blossom Festival.  For you gardeners, the Garden Design website looks like an interesting find.  I'm finding so many wonderful websites and blogs these days. As it is with books: so many blogs, so little time!
