受付前の中低木剪定

庭園内のサザンカは既に開花を迎えましたが、受付前のものはまだ小さなつぼみの状態でございます。丸い玉の様に見えているのは昨年咲いたサザンカがつけた実でございます。
葉枝に栄養が取られないよう、また梳かした場所から日差しが入るように三又など複数に枝が分れた部分を、形を整えながら剪定を行っている様子です。

Pruning the Shrubs in Front of the Reception Window
The sasanqua camellias in Murin-an’s garden have already flowered, but there are still small buds on the ones in front of the reception window. What looks like round beads are the fruits that grew on the sasanqua camellias last year.
Here are some pictures of our gardener pruning areas where multiple branches have grown while also shaping so that the leaves and branches do not take away the shrub’s nourishment and so that sunlight can enter through thinned areas.
