Ainsliaea apiculata is a small, perennial herb that inhabits the shade of trees in
mountainous regions, with stems growing to 10-20cm in height. The
leaves, 5-11, are arranged alternately along the stem's lower
portions, forming a cordate shape with long petioles, 1-3cm long,
typically pentagonal or shallowly cleft into five lobes. Flower
heads comprise three florets, and corollas are white, often
resulting in cleistogamous flowers. Bloom time: September-October.
