Convallaria majalis var. manshurica, a perennial herb, occurs in grassland or high plains in mountainous regions, with two radical leaves. The leaves are long-oblong, 10-18cm long, their backsides are tinge powdery-white, and their bases are long sheaths. Flower stalks measure 20-35cm in height, which arise from axils and are shorter than the leaves; in other words, they are lower than the height of the leaves. Around 10 in number, flowers set themselves in inflorescences in a racemose way. The fragrant flowers are white, broad-bell-shaped, approximately 1cm across; the tips are cleft into six lobes, and the lobes bend backward. Sap fruit matures red. Bloom time: April-June.
