Caulophyllum robstum,
a perennial herb inhabiting forests in mountainous regions, grows to
30-70cm in height. Leaves set themselves two on the upper portions,
and the others on the lower parts are of a triternate compound leaf;
each leaflet is oval to long-oblong, occasionally cleft in 2 or 3,
with margins entire. Terminal lobes are with pedicels. Stem apexes
emerge cymose inflorescences, set at approximately 10, about
1cm-in-diameter yellow-green flowers. Sepals are significantly
larger than petals. Bloom time: May-July. |
