A perennial plant of the Asteraceae family (APG classification: Asteraceae). The stem is erect and 10-40 cm tall. The basal leaves are spatula-shaped, oblanceolate, and 1-2 cm wide. They grow in small fascicles. Two to three leaves of the same shape but smaller than the basal leaves grow alternately on the stem. From April to June, a single flower head consisting of pale purple ray flowers and yellow tubular flowers appears at the top of the stem. The flowering diameter is 3-3.5 cm, making it beautiful. It grows in the dry grasslands of Honshu from the Chubu region northward. It is not found in western Japan, but its Japanese name means that it is a chrysanthemum that is common in the Kanto region. The horticultural variety commonly called Azumagiku is Miyakowasure, which is not related to the Azumagiku mentioned here.

キク科(APG分類:キク科)の多年草。茎は直立し、高さ10~40センチメートル。根出葉はへら状倒披針(とうひしん)形で幅1~2センチメートル。やや束生する。同形で根出葉よりは小さめの葉が2~3個、茎に互生する。4~6月、淡紫色の舌状花と黄色の筒状花からなる頭花が茎の頂に単生する。開花直径は3~3.5センチメートルで、美しい。中部地方以北の本州の乾燥した草原に生える。西日本ではみられないが、関東に多いキクという意味で和名がつけられた。なお、一般にアズマギクとよばれる園芸品種はミヤコワスレのことで、ここでいうアズマギクとは関係がない。 [小山博滋 2022年1月21日] 出典 小学館 日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)日本大百科全書(ニッポニカ)について 情報 | 凡例 |
