| Asyneuma japonicum, a
perennial herb growing to 0.5-1m in height, inhabits forests in
mountainous regions. Alternately arranged, leaves are small without
petioles on the upper parts, with larger leaves with short petioles
on the lower legs, in an oval or long oblong shape, tips pointed,
and uneven serrations on margins. Flowers set themselves in racemes
borne on stem tips and axils on upper parts; peduncles are short,
1-3mm long. Corollas are blue-purple, deeply divided in five from
bases, and the lobes, linear, 1-2mm long, open flat and bend
backward; thus, the flowers are seemingly schizopetalous. Bloom
time: June-August. |
