Crepidiastrum denticulatum / Yakushisou ヤクシソウ

 

Crepidiastrum denticulata, a biennial herb found in sunny locations in fields and mountains, branches well and grows to 0.3-1.2m in height—stems, in many individuals, tinge red-purple. Radical leaves have long petioles in the shape of a spoon and are arranged in crowds, which remain sustainable while in flower. Leaves are alternate, 5-10cm long and 2-5cm wide, oblong or obovate, with shallow serrations on the margins and bases that protrude backward to embrace the stems. Branch tips or axils on the upper parts are set about 1.5cm across the yellow flower heads. Bloom time: August-November.
