-Nationally designated important cultural property-Former Shitsu Aid Center Official Website

　On Monday, August 8th, volunteers came to harvest Dohassen (peanuts) while picking tea leaves for black tea at Udera.It's an unprecedentedly late start while watching the weather.I helped for the first time.Good harvest!I dug up while chatting happily and cheerfully.Peanuts are boiled in this area, so we have begun to set up the washing and boiling work.It was decided to wash in the stream and boil in the cauldron of the rescue center.I boiled it while eating a bento.Here too, there is no end to fun chatting.It was boiled in an iron cauldron and finished blackish, but it was delicious.We packed the ordered items in a bag, and the volunteers shared the bad-looking items as snacks.Of course I got it too.

　Another surprise report. The tea trees planted in March have sprouted and are splendid to be mistaken.Until just a week ago, I was watching the rain praying a little more to God so that it wouldn't die, but I was impressed by how good it was.Please look at the photo.I'm looking forward to growth!

　Cotton flowers have bloomed.There was a person who delivered the seedlings, and the ones that were planted in large pots were getting bigger.I had a cute triangular one, but I was interested in it as much as a bud. On the 12th, I went to work and found that one flower was in bloom!The yellow petals and the maroon color inside are impressive.Above all, the calyx and buds are unique and cute.Mr. de Rotz planted cotton to make cotton fabric, so why not plant it?It was a seedling that gave me.I am looking forward to seeing how many flowers will bloom and what kind of cotton will be produced.

　In the hot weather, I received a wonderful gift.The watermelon was raised and delivered by Mr. K.Last year, the watermelons made at the rescue hospital were delicious, so I sown the seeds I ate in the spring and raised them.Surprised!It was delivered from Saga.I cut one and had it together, chatted for a while and went home, but next year I will plant this seed at the rescue clinic.In fact, the watermelon seedlings I mentioned earlier on my blog have died.Was good!

　The other is honey.Honey caught in the nest of Japanese honeybees in the Yukou field that is rented out.I got a share.How would you like delicious honey?

　I started Twitter at De Rot's house.Please take a look.

　The rainy season is unprecedentedly comfortable with a refreshing breeze.Looking around during the rainy season, Hamabou is in full bloom.I put a lot of flowers on the sloping road of commuting and the thick shrubs.Behind the Father de Rotz Memorial Hall, Kanoko Yuri approached to see and was greeted by a horde of mosquitoes ...There are many seasonal flowers and plants around the rescue center!If you are vague, you will miss each season.The familiar Begonia of the Rescue Center is also in full bloom.When I went up to work, the tiger lily of the tiger lily stretched out from the thick grass and opened.

　Healing and joy in plants ... We receive various things.I thought it was a waste to miss the season because I was too caught up in the daily flow, while looking at the fresh blue fruits of the wild grapes.I want to enjoy the good things that God prepares from time to time.Let's stop tweeting!

 

　　Tiger lily's cheeks don't bloom

 

　　Tickled by the incense of the gardenia

　　　　　When Father's Day passed, the scent of gardenia jasminoides from my neighborhood reminded me of my late father.It was my favorite flower.

　I have several red medaka in the yard of the rescue center. From around the end of May, the spawning season has begun, and the birth rush of baby killifish continues.If you do not transfer the eggs laid on the aquatic plants to another container, the parents will mistake them for food, so they will be born in the washbasin.Mr. T from the Father de Rotz Memorial Hall is a veteran in distinguishing eggs.A great number of fry are growing. About 5 of them were taken to Mr. T's aquarium.

 

　Watermelons and blackberries are also growing in the garden fields.Please take a look. (Sr Aka)

 

　

 

 

　Finally rain!It's late and late rainy season.

　The tea tree saplings were also waiting for the rain.I feel relieved.

　By the way, today I would like to introduce another topic of tea seedlings.

 

　Sister H and Sister S are curious to learn that there is also a way to make native seeds from seeds for tea seedlings.I sowed seeds at the end of last year.Of course, it's the tea fruit of Udera. I was watching the situation with half a chill, saying, "That's easy ...", but it sprouted wonderfully cute buds and grew steadily.The sprouted planter was full and Sister S decided to transplant.

　Transplanting over three days, the first day was sweaty in the heat and sunshine, and the second day was soaked in the rain. The third day was cloudy and fair, but the trouble was that the mulch holes were gone.Not Sister S giving up here.I took the grass from the field that had been ruined and planted it with mulch.I finished planting it after noon. There were more than 3!

　Even the sprout from the seed is amazing, but Sister's amazing power of action.I hope you will survive the sunshine in summer and the dry season in autumn and winter.
