This is the third post about Chimonanthus praecox, also known as wintersweet, this year, but this is special because these wintersweet flowers, which I saw at Hibiya Park in Tokyo, made me realize that wintersweet had several cultivars!
The wintersweet flowers at the Hibiya Park (in the photos on this post) are of the local cultivar, which have thinner petals and reddish purple tepals, while the wintersweet I saw at the Kyu Shiba Rikyu Garden and the Hama Rikyu Garden is Chimonanthus praecox (L.) Link f. concolor (Makino) Makino, which produce bowl-shaped brighter yellow flowers.
Take a look at this post to compare the two types of wintersweet!!😊

蝋梅です。でもなんか違いません？そう、花びらが細くて花の中心が赤いでしょ。ググって知りました。どうもこれは和蝋梅、以前浜離宮などでみた素心蝋梅とは違う種類のようです。和蝋梅の花びらは細く、花芯は赤紫。素心蝋梅の花は丸っこくて花芯も黄色です。こちらを見て是非比べてみてください！😊
