Sweet Autumn Clematis 仙人草（センニンソウ）

Japanese follows English.　英語の後に日本語が続きます。

So white and so pretty! This is clematis terniflora or sweet autumn clematis at Mukojima Hyakkaen Garden in Tokyo.

Clematis terniflora センニンソウ

Sweet autumn clematis look so innocent, but poisonous! 仙人草

It is called "hermit plant" in Japanese because its stamens look like a hermit's beard. It is also called "(plant) horses don't eat" because of its poisonous nature. If you touch it without noticing, you will have a skin rash...

I said that before but will say it again. "Don't be fooled by appearances."😱

向島百花園の仙人草（センニンソウ）です。こんなに可憐なのに全身有毒。なので別名「馬食わず」。いつも言ってますが、外見だけで判断してはいけません。うっかり触ると火傷（皮膚炎）します😱
