This one is Tricyrtis formosana 'Samurai'. There are lots of different species and varieties of Tricyrtis. I agree - I love this one because of the variegated leaf (and beautiful blossom). I haven't seen Hototogisu here.

f you go from summer to autumn, Hototogisu will bloom in Japan. If you can take it well, please watch it as it will appear.

When searching with Hototogisu in Japan, the birds come out.
