Little Yellow Flowers named "kisumire"

These little yellow flowers are violaceous perennials grown in the places which catch the sun. That means it is not easy for them to grow in the mountains or thick bushes. They are now in full bloom in the Aso area. Every year during early spring, the fields in the Aso area are burned off. This allows the new grass to grow well. They symbolize the advent of full-fledged spring here in Kumamoto Prefecture.
