A-bombed Tree

Eucalyptus
(Hiroshima Castle)
  21 Motomachi, Naka-ku, Hiroshima (Hiroshima Castle)

  (2007.2.18)
  Because it is not a Japanese tree, it is believed that it was planted after the Meiji era.
I have never seen a large eucalyptus tree, and I do not know the natural tree shape of eucalyptus,
so I do not know how the effects of exposure have appeared.
There is also an A-bombed tree, Giant Pussy willow, nearby.
 

(2009.6.27)
The ground part was destroyed by the atomic bomb, but now it has many leaves.
 
 
(2010.4.3)
   
  In the spring, when the leaves are changing, new leaves are beginning to appear.
The color has changed a little from the top of the root,
so it seems that it is from here that it was burned down.
 
  (2017.5.3)
 
  Pass through the hanging leaves and shoot from the root.
Branches are stretched like winding, like twisted.

  I visited Hiroshima Castle on a sunny day in autumn.
I took a tour boat around the moat and photographed Eucalyptus trees from the top of the water.
It is not a Japanese tree, but it is completely integrated with the scenery of Hiroshima Castle.
