The Kenilworth ivy (Cymbalaria muralis) is native to Europe and came to Japan at the beginning of the Taisho period (1912-1926). Now, the plant can be found across Japan. The plant is said to flower from spring to autumn but I've seen it flower in winter for the last couple of years. Despite its innocent appearance, the Kenilworth ivy is very hardy. Many websites in Japan deal with how to remove the plant. The Kenilworth ivy is known to produce purple flowers but it produces white flowers, too.
Hi! I'm Kei Narujima. This is a blog about flowers, plants, and bugs I saw in CENTRAL Tokyo, and sometimes art and Japanese culture that bring you a smile or make you think (or so I hope)!! こんにちは。花や虫、そして時々日本の文化などについて書いてます😊。

These are flowers of Cymbalaria muralis or more commonly ivy-leaved toadflax or Kenilworth ivy. They're usually pale purple, but occasionally white like these.
