Mountain laurels (Kalmia latifolia) are native to the eastern United States but can now be found across Japan, producing flowers varying from white to pink in May and June in Japan. The flowers look like parasols when open and the buds
konpeito, i.e., tiny star-shaped Japanese sugar candies, which are Pokémon Nebby's favorite food.
Konpeito was imported from Portugal to Japan in the 16th century together with the name "confeito" in Portuguese, meaning sugar candy. If you haven't seen the candy, click
here (Wikipedia). See? The buds of mountain laurel look exactly like
konpeito, don't they?
Despite such lovely appearance, however, all the parts of Kalmia are poisonous especially for sheep as suggested by its other common names "lamb-kill," "calf-kill," "kill-kid," and "sheep-poison."

カルミア（亜米利加石楠花、アメリカシャクナゲ）です。北米原産ですが日本全国で栽培され、5月から6月に日傘のような花を付けます。でもそれよりかわいいのが蕾です。金平糖のような形をしています。金平糖はポケモンのほしぐもちゃんの好物ということでかわいいイメージのカルミアですが、カルミアは全部が有毒。特に羊が中毒しやすく、英語の別名が「羊殺し（lamb-kill、calf-kill、kill-kid）」です。見た目と違い怖い植物です。
