2013/08/08(Thu) - Interesting plant on the roadside

E-5, P8085443

During walking after the lunch, I found an interesting and strange plant on the roadside.
From the flower (?), a thin and long vine was growing straight out.

This is "crowdipper".
Though it is easily imagined "dipper" from the shape of flower, why called "crow"?
I don't know.

In Japanese, this plant is called also as "crowdipper (KARASU-BISHAKU)".
Perhaps, because it looks like a crow's footprint the leaves divided into three?
