今年はベランダのカナメモチが咲いています。育てやすい植物で、どんな形にも剪定できます。東京の路地のどこにでもあります。ベランダにもいいと思います。 

Everywhere in Tokyo you see this evergreen hedge plant called kanamemochi (カナメモチ, or Photinia glabra). In spring, the new leaves are red. This year our balcony bush flowered for the first time. I highly recommend growing this bush anywhere in Tokyo. It requires very little care and can be shaped easily.
