Dogtooth Violet and Anemone Nikoensis

First, Dogtooth Violet is called "Katakuri" and Anemone Nikoensis is "Ichirin-so" in Japanese. Both are very loved by many Japanese as pretty spring flowers. I visit a colony of Dogtooth Violet in Soryo Town Shobara City every year but, in addition to there, I found another colony beside Haizuka Dam in Mirasaka Town, the neibouring town of Soryo.
There were lots of Dogtooth Violet and Anemone Nikoensis in the colony in a wild condition and I took photos emphasizing their wildness.
