Father's Day. It has been six months since I started living in my parents' old house with my husband. I opened an old drawer that I don't usually open and found a letter addressed to my father. It was a letter from about 80 years ago. It must have been a time of war, and my father must have had a very hard time.
I am thankful for the peaceful life we have now.
The “Papaver rhoeas” that you have commented on
I was told that it is a crimson daisy that comes from a Chinese legend.
Thank you very much.
I wonder if the Charley poppies in your garden are an improved breed. I love this flower because of its unique color.
Soseki's field poppies also have crimson flowers and are said to be in bloom at the Soseki Memorial Hall.
I would like to share here a brief review of “Agojinkusa” that I found interesting.

My homework from last week, “slug-killing dumplings,” has not been done yet because I could not get the ingredient runnerade. I am sorry to hear that you told me about it in your comment.
There was also a series on how to get rid of slugs on the “Carmen-kun Garden Channel”. It didn't seem to be a good idea, but I think I will try the method of using beer to lure them away.
It is getting hotter day by day. Weeds in the field are growing. Edamame leaves are covered with holes, and side shoots of mini-tomatoes are growing as much as they can.
The vegetable garden has had a tumultuous start. I am worried about what will happen when the rainy season comes, but only the sunflowers are growing well.
Gardening is fun after all.
