Hydrocotyle maritima / Nochidome ノチドメ

 
Hydrocotyle maritima is a perennial plant inhabiting damp fields, roadsides, or paths between paddies. Stems are slender, sparsely branched, crawl on the ground, have fibrous roots at nodes, and the upper parts of the stems extend obliquely upward. Leaves are in a kidney-shaped orbicular shape, 2-3cm in diameter, cleft into five, with cordate bases and margins with obtuse serrations. Axils bear shorter-than-the-leaf's height peduncles and set ten or more small greenish flowers gathering together on the tips. Bloom time: June-October.
