“四方山の家-yomoyamanoie” means a house surrounded by mountains on all four sides. I want to have my own big garden someday. Now I have lots of plants growing on my balcony. Posting from Japan🇯🇵

I’m growing a lot of plants and trees on my river view balcony in Japan. Mini roses, hydrangeas, japanese maples, herbs and more🌱

When I woke up in the morning, the other swallowtail butterfly had also turned into a pupa. It was a shame that I missed the moment🥲

I’m raising insects for the first time, and two kinds of swallowtail caterpillars are starting to get ready to pupate🥺✨

Harvesting “sudachi,” a Japanese citrus fruit. Japan has many different varieties of citrus😋

My mini roses are turning yellow and falling off even though they're not sick. This was also caused by Japanese beetle larvae😂
The roots were almost all gone…

If a potted plant looks weak at this time of year, it may be due to Japanese beetle larvae, which might have eaten the roots completely.
They got me…😂

Juzu sango (blood berry).
It was so cute that I couldn’t resist buying it, but apparently the fruit, leaves, and roots are poisonous despite its appearance.
