Their bright orange was so vivid, catching my eye. They're Coppertips (Crocosmia) or montbretias. They (or more specifically their parents) are native to South Africa but can be found now across Japan and because of their hardiness, i.e., invasiveness, their growth is prohibited in some prefectures in Japan.
In Japanese, they're called "
hime hiogi suisen," which translates to "princess blackberry lily narcissus" because of the resemblance of their leaves to those of blackberry lilies and their bulbs to those of narcissus. The term "
hime," which means princess, is used to describe their smallness. Logical in a way but complicated!

姫檜扇水仙（ヒメヒオウギスイセン）です。オレンジの色が梅雨空に映えてました。南アフリカ原産ですが、日本全国に咲いていて、その野生ぶりに栽培を禁止している県もあるそうです。檜扇に葉の形が似ていて、水仙の球根に似ているからヒメヒオウギスイセン。ややこしいです。
