Galinsoga ciliata: An originating-in-tropical-America annual found first in Tokyo in 1910-the 1920s and has spread in various districts since then. The stems repeatedly bifurcate at intervals and grow to 15-60cm in height. In an oval to oval-like lanceolate shape, leaves are opposite, with shallow wavy serrations on the margins. The upper part's branch tips bear a small, 5mm diameter flower head with five white ligulate flowers and many yellow tubular flowers inside. Involucres are hemispherical, and the involucral bracts and peduncles have glandular hairs. Bloom time: June-November.
