This time of year marks the blooming season for sankayō (skeleton flower, *Diphylleia grayi*), whose white petals turn translucent after rain.

I heard someone had spotted the hard-to-find sankayō, so I immediately went to a nearby woodland. It had just stopped raining, and in high spirits I found the plants — there were a few in the area. Unfortunately, perhaps because there hadn't been enough rain or because they were still in bud, their petals had not become translucent. Rain is forecast for next week as well, so I'll try again then.
