Henbit deadnettle (Lamium amplexicaule) can be found across Japan. The plant is supposed to produce flowers from March to June but as you can see in these photos, it has flowers throughout the year but summer. The flowers have a unique shape with spots, which plays an important role to attract pollinators, like bees. Its Japanese name means "lotus seat for Buddha." How lovely would it be to sit on it!😊

仏の座(ホトケノザ)です。花期は3月から6月のはずなのですが上の写真を見て分かる通り夏以外はほぼ一年中咲くようです。花の形と模様がとってもユニークですが、これでハチなどの送粉者を惹きつけます。
