Bonsai & Plant Fair

The lingering summer heat finally begins to wane a little as the end of summer approaches.

The weather gradually becomes cooler, giving people a sense of the upcoming autumn.

Last weekend, I was working in the Azabu Juban area and there was a ‘Bonsai & Plant Fair’.

They were displaying and selling the Bonsai from Kawaguchi – Angyo, which is an area with a long history of producing Bonsai and flowers.

There were lots of people, locals as well as people from overseas.

Bonsai sounds like a hobby for the elderly, but nowadays lots of young Japanese and foreigners are interested .

There were lots of various sized and types of Bonsai with explanations in Japanese and English.

Having a plant in your room has some healing effect.

It might be fun to have a Bonsai in your room instead of having regular house

plants.
