Weed 003 (名無しの権兵衛)「三味線・撥」

She knows name of this plant, shepherd's purse.
It's called Nazuna "ナズナ", PenPenGusa"ペンペングサ" in Japanese.
There is funny story regarding PenPenGusa's name mean.
It is that the shape of the seed like a plecture of Shamisen "三味線"which is a Japanese traditional stringed instrument. It has three strings and be played using a plectrum to be called "BACHI" "撥"in Japanese.
Shamisen's tone color is just Pen Pen.


We never care these weeds, but they can grow up at anywhere.
