Ha-n-ge-sho

crow dipper ; カラスビシャク(烏柄杓); (半夏)

Eleven days have passed since summer solstice.
We name a few days 'Ha-n-ge-sho'.
A year is divided into 24 and we call it seasonal datum points; 節気.
Each of the seasonal datum points is divided into 3  and we call it Ko-u ;候.
As a result there are 72  Ko-u in a year.
'Ha-n-ge-shyo-u' is one of them.
By the way, crow dipper grows about this time of the year.
So we call the days 'Ha-n-ge-sho'.
I took the picture of crow dipper in my yard.

The best and easy method with which we can confirm all names of 72候 is to refer to net. I could not fine the list of 72候 in 広辞苑.
The family name of 烏柄杓 is 里芋.
水芭蕉,蒟蒻, 里芋 is same family.
Are my english compositions correct ?

I also think it is the easiest and the best way to refer the net to confirm various things.
Thank you for showing me the family name of 烏柄杓.
