諸葛菜[Shokatsusai|Shokassai]
Orychophragmus violaceus
諸葛[Shokatsu] : 諸葛亮[Shokatsu Ryō], Zhuge Liang
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zhuge_Liang
菜[Sai] : Rape; greens
It has aliases such as 紫花菜[Murasakihanana], 大紫羅欄花[Ooaraseitō], etc. 紫[Murasaki] means purple, 花[Hana] means flower, 大[Oo] means large and 紫羅欄花[Araseitō] means Garden stock, Matthiola incana.
Native to China. It was introduced in the late 19th century, has become wild and spread throughout the country today. The flowers are about 3 centimeters in diameter and the grass is about 50 to 60 centimeters tall. It often grows in clusters.
It is said that Zhuge Liang had it grown as a military food, hence the name. He is called 諸葛孔明[Shokatsu Kōmei] or 孔明 and is a popular figure in our country. For example, 空城の計[Kūjō no kei](The empty fort strategy,) which is one of the famous anecdotes about him.

So i am embarrassed to admit I don't think I ever beat Wild Arms 3 properly... I thought I had but while digging thru peoples LPs I realized the final couple stages of WA3's final boss fight seemed really unfamiliar to me, although I do distinctly remember the end cutscene.
But other than being a really thematically cool marathon boss fight where you have to literally fight back the evolution of a hostile alternate reality, the final form of the final boss summons up 4 very conspicuously named and partially mistranslated tentacles in sequence. (unless you kill the boss before it can do that...) And they're all named after a different genus of flower.
Orychophragmus really only accounts for Orychophragmus violaceus, the Chinese Violet Cress, which is mostly ornamental, and considered an invasive species in Japan. (it is apparently farmed as a crop in its native china, for seeds used to press vegetable oil, like canola. but as far as i know it's introduction to Japan and the US was only for aesthetic purposes.)
Matricaria is a genus of Chamomile, again commonly farmed as commercial chamomile. It's a part of the daisy family, and daisies are the basis of the Tiny Flower item featured throughout the Wild Arms series.
Carcuma is the genus of "Hidden-lily" plants, which includes commonly farmed tumeric. It is a subset of the ginger family
and finally the genus Vanda is a subset of orchids known for particularly vibrant flowers, and the subject of conservationist efforts, as they are quickly losing their natural habitats.
Anyway that's your random Wild Arms boss factoid for the day. Now if you'll excuse me, it's back to the screencap mines for me.👷⛏️

My darling would be lying at my side among the willows, and under the creeping vine above – Phyllis plucking me flowers for a garland, Amyntas singing me songs. Here are cold springs, Lycoris, here soft meadows, here woodland; here with you, only the passage of time would wear me away.
