 A Vision for the Future of Hibaku-jumoku on APU campus

To ensure better lighting and growing conditions for the Hiroshima saplings, GLH partners at Ritsumeikan-APU are relocating the Yoshino Cherry sapling to a new home, APU Sakura Sky Garden, opened in April this year. As our partners at APU are concerned about the strong wind at the garden, a windshield will be established beside the sapling to foster its healthy growth. Here is a picture of APU's Sky Garden.
