Lapsana apogonoides / Koonitabirako コオニタビラコ

 

Lapsana apogonoides, an annual or biennial, grows on roadsides or corners of parks or yards and is occasionally found in colonies. The whole feels soft, with some fine hairs. Radical leaves lay in a rosette way, measuring 8-25cm in length, 1.7-6cm in width, and deeply cut in a lyrate way; the terminal lobes are triangular-ovate, with tips round. On-stem leaves on lower parts are somewhat sharp, and those on upper parts are fewer in number and smaller, tingeing a bit brown-purple. Stem tips bear 7-8mm across yellow flowers in a caribou way. Bloom time: May-October.
