前回のNo.1から５ヶ月ちょいリポートをサボっていてある日ふと気づいたら、葉の色が変化していた。一枚目の写真は、2022年12月20日に撮ったモノ。
まさか枯れちゃった…？ とドキドキしていたら、次は葉が全部なくなってしまっていた…。え、まさかが本当に？ と心配して本を調べてみるとコナラ(と思っている)は秋に紅葉・黄葉して、葉を落とすとか。
どんぐりをもらってきた親の木を見に行くと、葉がほとんど落ちていた。なるほどと納得。
そしてマイガーデンのこの(子)コナラに目を凝らすと、枝先にちゃんと冬芽(？)があってホッと一安心。芽が出たばかりの一年生でも、営みはオトナと同じなのだ…と思うとなんか感慨深い。
冬来りなば春遠からじ…。（ゆるい観察は続きます）
It has been around 5 months from the previous No.1. When I just noticed it, their leaves turned the colours. It was taken on the 20th of Dec 2022.(the first picture)
I was nervous if they were dying...then all the leaves had gone. Oh my God. I checked it with a book, they turn colour then fall their leaves when autumn comes. I went to see thier mother tree, the tree was the same as them. I understood about that.
In my garden, they has lived in there, they have had their winter buds so I am satisfied with that. I am very touched with their ... how to live. They are just fresh, born in 2022, but the same way to live with their mother tree. If Winter comes, can Spring be far behind...(by Shelley). I will continue this observation.
