Persicaria capitata, or pinkhead smartweed is flowering
on the roadside beside the potager.
It vigorously grows and spreads, therefore, it is suitable for ground cover.
It bears a number of small pink ball-shape flowers, and looks beautiful.
The flowers look like Japanese traditional candy 'Kompeito'.
However you must be careful when you grow it, because it is invasive.
We find it here and there in our garden:)

ヒメツルソバがポタジェの横の道端で咲いています.
旺盛に成長して広がるのでグランドカバーに適しています.
小さなピンクの丸い花を無数につけ、とても綺麗です.
でも、育てるときは注意が必要です.
とても広がりやすいからです.
うちの庭ではあちこちにあります.
