Photo Tokyo Ajisai

These are Hydrangea Macrophylla (aka Big Leaf Hydrangea, Hortensia, in Japanese アジサイ or 紫陽花), and they're very common around this time of the year. I took these pictures at Dei-no-izumi park (出井の泉公園) in Itabashi-ku, Tokyo, which is famous in the area for having about 2000 of these flowers.

That last one is gakuajisai of the same family. Isn't it somewhat キモかわいい?

Update (18:12): More ajisai photos at Chabe's today blog entry.
