Clematis lost to unusual August typhoon

先週の台風がグリーンカーテンのクレマチスを殺してしまいました。葉がきれいだったので、残念です。

Last weekend’s typhoon killed the clematis vine that had spread across the green curtain. It must have snapped close to the base.

Thousand year old tree damaged in last week’s typhoon

先週の台風のせいで、この千年ケヤキが破損していました。この木は近所で一番古い木だから、とても悲しくなりました。木が生き残ることを願っています。

The oldest tree in my neighborhood, which a sign claims is a thousand year old zelkova, was damaged in last week’s typhoon. I often pass by it, and recently posted about the beautiful wood support recently installed. Unfortunately, the part that fell was the larger main branch that was also previously damaged and repaired. I hope the tree can pull through this major damage.
