ブッドレア(Buddrea)とは、日本人にとって奇妙な名前ですが、その由来はイギリスの植物学者バドル(Buddle)に由来します。英名の示すとおり、甘い微香を持ち、蜜もあるので、蝶がよく来ます。
Buddrea is a strange name for Japanese people. The name comes from British botanist Buddle. As the English name suggests, this plant has a sweet smell and honey, so butterflies come often.

好事魔多し clouds follow the sunshine
植え込みの中で、蚊にたくさん刺されました。物事思うようには進みません。
I was bitten a lot by mosquitoes, because I was in the shrubbery. Things never work out as I expect.

オニユリに蟻 ants on a tiger lily
蟻がオニユリの蜜を吸いに来たようです。蟻は、受粉に役にたつのでしょうか。
It seemed that ants came to suck honey of lilies. But I doubt ants are useful for pollination.

多花性種 multiflora
畑の隅に、この花が咲いていました。花は、イモカタバミに似ていますが、名前はわかりません。
This flower has bloomed in the edge of a field. The flower is similar to pink sorrel, but I don't know the names of it.

天候不順 unsesonable weather
庭のテッセンは、既に咲き終えましたが、天候不順で気温が低い日が続いたため、またちらほら咲きました。植物はどうやって気温を知るのでしょう。
Although all the Crematis florida flowers in my garden had been scattered, it bloomed again here and there, probably because the weather was irregular and the temperature continued to be low. I wonder how plants sence the temperature.

待ちわびる to waite impatiently
今か、今か、と待ちわびて、背伸びして中をのぞいたら、看護士さんに優しく叱られました。
待つことには、希望があります。
Can't wait any more! When I stretched myself and peeped inside, a nurse gave me a mild reproof.
There is hope in the waiting.
