From Bud To Bloom of Chinese Chive Flower ニラの花 つぼみから開花 

Japanese follows English. 英語の後に日本語が続きます。

I first saw this bud next to an orange tulip in full bloom. The tulip and the bud were both 30 cm tall and their stems were both straight. Naturally I thought of it as a tulip bud, so finding it two weeks later developing into a full blown flower like in the second photo really surprised me😲.

Mistook it for a tulip bud
チューリップのつぼみかと。。。

Two weeks later 2週間後😲

Standing by itself....
ぽつんと一人、じゃなくて一花

What surprised me further is that this is a Chinese chive flower. It's amazing and beautiful that garlic chive has a cluster of such pretty small white flowers....!

If I had known that, I would definitely have taken a sniff of it to make sure that it was really a Chinese chive flower...

チューリップのつぼみと思いこんでました(1枚目)。だってオレンジのチューリップの横で茎がそっくりだったんです。そしたら2週間後びっくり。ちっちゃい花がいっぱい。しかもニラ😲?! ニラがこんなに可憐な花を。。。  知ってたら嗅いでました😜
