Diphylleia grayi is a perennial inhabiting mountain
forests in hilly districts, the stem 30-60cm in height, setting two
alternate leaves on the top, one large, positioned slightly lower
than the other small. The big one is 20-30cm in length, 30-35cm in
width, in the kidney shape, deeply cleft in two, with a long
petiole, while the small one has no petiole and cleft deeply in the
same way. The stem apex emerges a cymose inflorescence with small
white flowers, each approximately 2cm across. The white petals
become transparent when wet, sometimes associated with glass-made
flowers. Bloom tie: May-July. |
