ナズナ
お茶畑の周りでナズナが咲いています。空き地などで普通に見られる越年草です。和名は撫でるほどかわいらしい花という意味の「撫で菜(なでな)」から転じたものと言われています。
"Nazuna (ナズナ)" plants are in bloom around the tea plantation. They are the biennial plants that commonly grow in vacant lots. The name comes from the word "Nadena (なでな)", which means that they are so lovely that people stoke with their hands.
