Conandron ramondioides / Iwatabako イワタバコ

 
Conandron ramondioides is a perennial herb inhabiting semi-shady cliffs where water always exudes. It sends out a few significant leaves from its short rhizome. The leaves, with petioles 3-10cm long, are oblong-oval in shape, 10-30cm long, and 5-15cm wide, and generally have many waves on their surface. Flower stalks emerge from leaf axils and set umbels with 2-3 red-purple flowers each. The corollas are cylindrical in the lower parts and cleft into five lobes, opening almost flat in the dishway, measuring 1.5cm in diameter. Bloom time: June-August.
