This is a general term for the family Fabaceae.
A plant that has long been popular among Japanese people and is most read in Manyoshu.
It is one of the seven herbs in autumn, and it is written as "autumn" in "Kusakanmuri", and it is truly autumn flower.
On August 12, the Tokyo Regional Meteorological Observatory reported that one of the Japan Meteorological Agency's biological seasonal observation information, "Yamahagi flowering", which had a slightly earlier flowering period, but the "Hagi" in Hamarikyu Onshi Garden began to bloom gradually. .
When I asked the staff of the garden, the "hagi" in the park was based on two types: Sendaihagi (also known as Miyaginohagi) and Marubahagi.
Sendaihagi has raceme (a butterfly-shaped flower, reddish purple, etc.) on the stem, weeping, and the leaves are pointed elliptical. Marbahagi has a short raceme (a butterfly-shaped flower red-purple) on the leaf axils, does not drop, and the leaves are inverted to elliptical.
Autumn-like clouds emerge in the clear blue sky, creating a unique landscape of this season.
