Comments on: “Entrance” means “Not Out”, and a freaky plant (sort of) http://regex.info/blog/2007-04-15/424 Not a photo blog, but sometimes I play one on TV Fri, 08 Aug 2008 21:07:41 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.0.12-alpha by: Jake http://regex.info/blog/2007-04-15/424#comment-4052 Fri, 27 Apr 2007 21:58:12 +0000 http://regex.info/blog/2007-04-15/424#comment-4052 Hi there- I've enjoyed the bento page for a while- don't know how I found it, could I have been googling bentos, regretting the day I ever left Japan? Just got a d200 so thought I'd pay you a visit. I like the wrapped up plant picture (15th April) I think it's probably sotetsu (Cycad palm) underneath. I like it so much, can I use it for a lecture I do on Japanese garden trees, please? cheers Jake.

Over here in my neck of the woods (Koto-ku, Tokyo), I have occasionally come across similarly wrapped trees in the winter time, especially at new parks with transplanted trees. But they don't look like they belong in the Dali Musuem in Figueres. Japanese: 藁囲い（わらがこい）。寒気を防ぐため、樹木などを藁でかこうこと。（広辞苑　第五版） Amazing, funny pics!

Maybe there was some sort of mistake, and they planted something large upside-down. Maybe it’s not wrapping. Maybe there was some sort of mistake, and they planted something large upside-down.
