Centella asiatica / Tsubokusa ツボクサ

 
Centella asiatica is a perennial found on roadsides, in gardens, or in forests. Stems crawl along the ground and propagate themselves by forming roots at their nodes. Leaves measure 2.5-5cm in diameter, kidney-like and circular, with bases reniform, margins with shallow serrations, and petioles with vaginate leaves. Nodes emerge 1-2 inflorescences in which small flowers bloom in clusters. Bloom time: May-August.
