Hamayu (Peace Memorial Park) (A-bombed tree)

In 1969 (Showa 44), the plant of hamayu, which was exposed to the atomic bombing 2200m from the hypocenter, was transplanted from Kamakura into the Peace Memorial Park. This hamayu was exposed to the atomic bombing at Minamidanbara-cho, Minami-ku (Hiroshima Women's Commercial High School: At that time, the army ship artillery corps health education corps was stationed), but one month after the bombing, I saw that the bulb was sprouting. An army soldier found it and brought it back to his home in Kamakura to grow.
