Flowers in the Hanok Village

I went to Jeonju's Hanok Village which is a huge tourist complex in the old part of the city, where the old buildings are being restored and there are major places of interest to visit. You can read more about that here.

The spring annuals that I saw planted a few weeks ago are blooming and it is quite a picture. There is also a paper sculture display among the flowers.

Liliums?

This photograph was taken near the river/stream near the Jeonju Nature Ecological Museum that I visited yesterday. The flowers were just starting to bloom in the flower bed near the museum building.

Roses and Creepers

These photos I took yesterday. Walking along the streets of Jeonju South Korea, I saw this wonderful creeper on a wall. Later I walked past the roses. They seem to have appeared out of nowhere and there are many blooming around the place.

I had thought of creeping out at night with a pair of scissors to "claim" one for me, but the students gave me some flowers.

Roses in Korea

My flowers given to me for Teacher's Day, Jeonju, Korea, May 2009.

At Mt Mai Tap-Sa

A glorious display of Azalea and Wisteria

Azaleas surround the lake.

What flower is this?

I should know I think, but I just cannot seem to remember the name of this stunning flower. It is in full bloom in South Korea right now.

Flower Shop in Korea

This delightful display was in front of a flower shop in Jeonju, Korea. The shops seem to be a cross between a garden shop as I would know it in Australia (pots of seedlings etc) and flowers. The baskets and other items to display the flowers many of which are flowering seedlings are spectacular.
