Astilbe odontophylla, a 0.4-1m tall perennial with a
compound leaf made of three leaflets, occurs in forests in
mountainous regions. Veins in a booklet appear to run parallel to
one another. Still, it is impossible to say that this is the case,
as they are partially destroyed, which is one reason it is
straightforward to distinguish it from the seemingly similar plant
in another family, Aruncus dioicus var. kamtschaticus, whose
veins run parallel. Bloom time: June-July. |
