Pink knotweed (Persicaria capitata) is native to the Himalayas and is said to have been introduced to Japan in the Maiji era for rock gardens.
The pink flowers, which look like kompeito sugar (small coloured sugar candy covered with tiny bulges), are beautiful all over.
The sunshine and intense heat of this summer didn't stop them from blooming a lot.
It is now in its autumn leaf colour and the flowers are turning white.
ヒメツルソバはヒマラヤ原産で、日本へは明治時代にロックガーデンに導入されたそうです.
金平糖に似たピンクの花が一面に咲く様子はとても綺麗です.
今年の夏の日照りと猛暑にも負けずにたくさんの花を咲かせていました
今、紅葉の時期を迎え、花も白くなってきています.
