オトコエシ
オトコエシが咲いています。草地など明るいところに生える多年草です。同じ属で秋の七草のひとつオミナエシ(女郎花)と比べて、茎や葉が大きく、全体に毛が多いなどの特徴からオトコエシ(男郎花)と呼ばれています。
"Otokoeshi (オトコエシ)" plants are in bloom. They are the perennial plants that grow in well-lighted places such as grass fields. The name comes from the fact that they have masculine characteristics such as bigger stems and leaves and much hair compared to "Ominaeshi (オミナエシ)", which belongs to the same group and is listed as one of the seven fall harbs "Akino-Nanakusa (秋の七草)".
