After his wife lost her eyesight at the age of 52, this man planted a carpet of scented pink flowers outside their house to make her smile again.
Mr and Mrs Kuroki married in 1956. They had two children and settled into a happy life as dairy farmers in Shintomi Town, Japan.
It was tough work but, as they grew older, they started to plan their retirement – they were going to travel around Japan together.
But, after 30 years of marriage when Mrs Kuroki was 52-years-old, she lost her eyesight over the space of a week, due to complications with her diabetes, RocketNews24 reports.
She withdrew from life on the farm and became more and more isolated. Thinking about ways he could get friends and family to visit her each day, her husband spotted a pink shibazakura flower growing in the garden.
He realised these flowers weren’t just stunning to look at – they also had a beautiful scent.
He began to plant more of the bright pink flowers outside the house. He planted thousands of them over the next two years. In a bid to make his wife smile, he created a glorious scented carpet of pink outside their front door.
Slowly, she began to come out of the house again to enjoy the garden.
A decade on and the beautiful pink garden attracts a constant stream of visitors from surrounding towns – often around 7,000 a day in spring.
And Mrs Kuroki can often be seen walking around the garden with her husband, a huge smile on her face.
