梅の蕾が膨らむ春節の今日

 今夜は新月ですから、月が出ません。と言っても、実際は昼間出てます。太陽～月～地球と並ぶため、地球から見ると月が殆ど太陽の近くなので見えないだけです。中国や内モンゴルでは新月の今日が春節です。現地ではチュンチエと言い、旧暦のお正月です。

　確かに寒い中にもそろそろ春の気配を感じる頃で、我が家の４本の梅も咲きそうです。写真は「白梅しだれ」です。また、一本の梅が紅白に咲き分ける「思いのまま」という品種も蕾が膨らんでいます。開花したらアップします。昨年、開花したらお客様が見えました。

 Tonight is a new moon, so the moon does not appear. But they are actually existing in the daytime. Since it is lined with the sun～the moon～and the earth, so that the moon cannot be seen from our earth because the moon is almost near the sun. In China and Inner Mongolia, today is the Lunar New Year pronounced "Chunchie" in Chinese.

 Certainly, it is almost time to feel the sign of spring even in the cold. And the four plums in my garden are also likely to bloom. The photo is "Weeping white plum". One of the plums is bicolored as red and white, named "As you wish," and the buds are also bulging. I will show you her blossom. Last year, a beautiful lady visited when blooming.
