Setsubunsou

戸倉駅の上の天狗公園にこの可愛いらしい花が沢山咲いています。節分のころに咲くのでセツブンソウと言います。この写真は今日泊まっているお客様の上田さんが撮って頂きました。
This pretty little flower is in bloom in the park above Togura Station. It usually blooms around Setsubun (the time when Winter changes to Spring), and is called 'setsubunsou'. The dictionary calls it Shibateranthis pinnatifida. I think I like setsubunsou better.
