Fish mints (Houttuynia cordata) are native to Asia and can be found across Japan. Those in the post are specifically double-flowered fish mints (Houttuynia cordata var. Plenus), one of my favorite plants! Fish mints produce beautiful white flowers from May to August in Japan although what look like petals are actually bracts as those of Cornus kousa are.

Fish mints are used in Chinese medicine and in Japan, fish mint tea is said to be effective for skin problems. I suffered from severe acne in my teenage years so my late maternal granny sometimes sent me fish mint tea bags. I don't know if they were effective but I believe that thanks to the tea, I have no acne or any serious skin problems now.

ドクダミはアジア原産。日本でもあちこちで見られます。ただこの記事のドクダミはちょっと特別。八重咲きです。普通のドクダミはあちこちで見かけますが、八重は見つけるのがなかなか大変です。ところでドクダミと言えばドクダミ茶（私だけ？😆）。10代の頃ひどいニキビに悩まされていた私に祖母がよくドクダミ茶を送ってくれました。効果の有無は分かりませんが、今はニキビもなくお肌に何の問題もありません😊。
