Commentary

An annual plant that grows in well-lit areas such as along roads. The spikes contain many flowers, and have long hairs on the calyx and ate the edges of the bracts, resembling a fox's fluffy tail. However, the flowers do not bloom at the same time. They bloom little by little and become fruit, so only one to a few pink flowers can be seen on one ear.
