ホトトギスと聞けば鳥が思い浮かぶかと思いますが、ホトトギスという名の花が山野の日陰に自生しています。

夏から秋にかけて開花をするのですが、今年(2013年)は11月の終わりでも京都の妙蓮寺さんで花を咲かせているのを見ました。
特徴的な花を咲かせ、個人的に好きな花の1つです。

In Japanese "Hototogisu" means a little cuckoo name.
This is because this flower, Hototogisu has similar spots of that bird.

Generally, Hototogisu (Hairly toad-lily / Tricyrtis hirta) blooms August to October however I saw their unique spotted flowers at Myoren-ji in Kyoto in the end of November 2013.
Personally, this is one my favorite flowers.

118 すすき - Susuki

高知県香美市 - Kami, Kochi Prefecture
Early Nov '10

すすきも日本の秋の象徴です。
最近では、すすき野を見ることが少なくなってきましたが、白く色づいた穂の美しさは格別です。

Susuki (Miscanthus sinensis) is iconic plant of Autumn in Japan.
Obviously, Koyo(Autumn Leaf Color) is beautiful but when Susuki's ears turned to the white, they have another beauty.
Unfortunately, Susuki is decreasing their numbers therefore, it is hard to see the growing in a mass.
