Showy Evening Primrose (Oenothera speciosa) ヒルザキツキミソウ(昼咲月見草)

英語の後に日本語が続きます。

I thought that they were gigantic rosy evening-primroses (Oenothera rosea) at first and found at home they are not but showy evening primroses. This primrose is native to North America and was imported to Japan as an ornamental plant and can now be found across Japan. The primrose produces flowers from May to July in Japan, which are 4-5 cm in diameter and open during only the day. Because of that, its Japanese name is "hiruzaki tsukimisou," which translates into "primrose opening during the day."

最初、巨大な赤花夕化粧(アカバナユウゲショウ)かと思ったのですが、帰って調べたらヒルザキツキミソウ(昼咲月見草)だと分かりました。北米原産ですが、今は日本でもあちこちで見られます。5月から7月に花を付けますが、日中しか開かず、だから名前も「昼咲月見草」です。
