I found a funny flower at Karuizawa National Wild Bird Sanctuary Forest. A small white flower blooms through three big leaves. My botanical book says this flower is trillium tschonoskii. Interestingly enough, every part of this flower is composed of multiples of three. This means that it has 3 leaves, 3 calyxes, and 6 stamens… What is more, the tip of the pistil will be separated into three!
野鳥の森で変なお花発見！！！３つの大きな葉っぱの間から白い小さなお花が咲いています。図鑑で調べてみると、このお花はシロバナエンレイソウ。エイレンソウは何から何まで３の倍数で作られているんです。つまり、葉は３枚、ガクも３枚で、雄しべは６つ。雌しべの先も３つに分かれるんですよー！
