Arabis hirsuta,
30-80cm in diameter, grows in grasslands or forest edges in fields
and mountains, with stems having stellate and monotrichous hairs.
Radical leaves are rosette-like, and on-stem ones embrace the
branches; both have undulate serrations on the margins. Stem apexes
give racemes with white flowers. Fruit (silique), 2-6cm long, set
themselves parallel to gynophores (called peduncles when flowering).
Bloom time: May-July. |
