Nihongo flower
The nihongo flower is an aggressively invasive and opportunistically parasitic flower in the domain that can grow on ground, on trees, and in some woody bushes. They were introduced by known ecological miscreant Nihongo Jones, their namesake. Deceptively named, they are not true flowers.
Nihongo flowers' stems swell before blooming, after which they suddenly deploy permanent white leaf-scale petals, which are dense enough to obstruct nearly all light from the vicinity. The flowers themselves resemble a red dot or a circular pin cushion, with a barely-visible fuzz of stigmata poking out in all directions. They tend to hang semi-horizontally out from smaller branches, making the host look like a white-leaved tree has been spliced onto them. The leaf-petals are quite thick and feature quasi-hexagonal vein patterning, tapering somewhat towards the outer edge. The nihongo flower's petals' shape can be described as resembling young plants of various paulownia species.
