Seasonal sights: Nemophila and Kochia
A spectacular spring sight: a "blue carpet" of about 5.3 million nemophila flowers.
Nemophila is an autumn-sown annual plant of the genus Nemophila in the family Violaceae (formerly the family Malvaceae).
It blooms with blue flowers and has long, finely cut leaves, so in Japanese it is called "Rurikarakusa" (lapis lazuli arabesque), which likens the plant's appearance to an arabesque pattern.
Its English name is "Baby Blue Eyes," and it seems that this was taken from the adorable shape of its flowers.
