Scilla scilloides var. litoralis / Hamatsurubo ハマツルボ

 
Scilla scilloides var. litoralis is a perennial herb that inhabits rocky places in coastal areas. Leaves, 2-4, are in the shape of a linear, 5-20cm long, 5-12cm wide; not only is the width wider but also thicker than the elemental species, Scilla scilloides. Leaves appear in spring and disappear in the summer, and as late August-early September set in, flower stalks emerge and arrange many light red-purple flowers on them. The flowers bloom from the bottom upward, and the leaves appear afresh. Bloom time: August-October.
