Lespedeza (Bush Clovers) 萩(ハギ)

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

Everyone makes mistakes and so do plants, so I thought. These are flowers of lespedeza or Japanese bush clovers. "Bush clovers" is a kigo for autumn. A kigo is a season word or phrase associated with a particular season used in traditional forms of Japanese poetry. So it's natural that I thought the bush clover mistakenly flowered in June!! But I was wrong. Lespedeza flowers from early summer to autumn, so this bush clover wasn't mistaken but I was😅!
