Mouse Ear Grass
This plant is popular in my hometown. When spring comes, it can be found everywhere. It's very easy to be recognized because it is hairy. I was told by my mother to call it ‘qing (pin yin)’. We picked it to make a green traditional food which is made by this plant, flour and any other things you would like. I had no doubt about its name until recently a Japanese gave me 7 traditional edible plants‘ names in spring! Wow, it is called the Mouse Ear Grass,because the hairy new born leave looks like a mouse ear! How cute!

Hi, so glad to find this page! And thank you for this essay. It's good photo! I felt it's really interesting too to hear this Chinese name "mouse ear grass" :) In Japan, also to my surprise, it is called "human's shape" ! But it seems to indicate the shape of the traditional food (dango, dumpling) made from rice and this "mouse ear grass" :)
