The sky is bright blue, and the red berries of the Japanese maple turn bright red.
Even after the leaves have fallen off, the nanakamado bears bright red berries and continues to burn with life even in the bitter cold of the snow!
We express our infinite love, gratitude, and prayers to "Nanakamado," a tree in Hokkaido that endures winter with both strength and prudence, as if it were inhabited by a guardian god of winter.
