Pink Petunias Carpet Field at Chiba Pref. Dairy Farm; Flowers Contrast Well with Vivid Blue Summer Sky

Pink petunias in full bloom carpet a field at Mother Farm in Futtsu, Chiba Prefecture, on Tuesday, creating a beautiful contrast with the blue summer sky. About 20,000 petunias of the variety Momoiro toiki (pink breath), were manually planted in an approximately 5,000-square-meter field at the dairy farm, a popular excursion spot for families. The best time to view the flowers will last through late September.
