Dear Jacquewyn,
After the nuclear power plants closed down near Tokyo, there was a huge power shortage over the hot summer months here in Japan, so people decided to try using natural shade outside houses and shops. A common green shade plant used was bitter cucumber - Momordica charantia - which grows fast, provides good shade, is tough against heat, and produces fruit that can be used as a nutritious though slightly bitter vegetable (it is popular in Japan, as an occasional food).
Cheers, thanks for joining. Peter (Admin., and ethnobotanist, Kyoto)
