What surprises us most？ It is that there are still couples who keep doing things to show each other love． A Japanese farmer is famous for his act of love． He has spent nearly two years planting flowers for his blind wife．
Mr． and Mrs． Kuroki live in a large flower garden． The garden has turned into a tourist attraction （旅游胜地） recently． Around 7，000 visitors come here each year， not only for the beautiful scenery （景色）， but also for the special story behind the two old farmers．
In 1956， the newly married couple first moved into the house． The house would be their home for the rest of their lives． They had two children and lived happily for years． However， as years passed， Mrs． Kuroki's health began to decline． Her vision （视力） problems were so serious that she became blind in the end． She hid herself in her home for a long time， refusing to leave unless it was necessary．
Mr． Kuroki got an idea． He wanted to give her gifts﹣flowers． So he got to work on his big surprise． Mr． Kuroki took advantage of the hills around their house and he began to plant a kind of flower with strong fragrance （芳香）． He wanted to see if the fragrance would make her come outside． When he realized that his idea was going to work， he worked for nearly two years to completely cover his garden with the flowers．
