Ixeris repens / Hamanigana ハマニガナ

 
Ixeris repens is a perennial herb that grows in sandy soil on seashores. It propagates by extending rhizomes long underground. The leaves are thick and have long petioles; even if covered with sand, they can rise by themselves. The blades are 3-5cm long and wide, palmately cleft or dissected—variable. The axils give birth to peduncles, which set yellow flower heads on tips. The involucres are about 1cm long and cylindrical. Bloom time: April-October.
