Adenophora triphylla var. japonica (Tsurigane ninjin)

Tsurigane ninjin is a plant of the Campanulaceae, or bellflower family, which is a sign of the coming autumn.              

It swings gracefully to the wind.    

Its Japanese common name derives from the plant’s flowers, which are shaped like tsurigane (bells), and its roots, which resemble those of Chosen ninjin (ginseng).
