It blooms in Kyobashi.

[Silver] Nov. 28, 2018 14:00

 I found pretty flowers on the planting under the Kyobashi highway. 

The petals resemble Taiwan grayheaded cuckoo, and the leaves are exactly the same, so I thought it was a flower called "White grayheaded cuckoo". When I went to an exhibition of botanical art held at Hibiya Park and asked a teacher familiar with flowers, it was said that a flower called "Shirohototogis" appeared in a horticultural species.

 When I looked at the photo, I was glad that he told me that it was probably "Shirohototogis".

The cherry blossoms are blooming next to it. Please enjoy it during the walk.

Reply: "Shirohotogis" is a plant belonging to the grayheaded cuckoo family Lilyaceae.
