Diplomorpha ganpi / Koganpi コガンピ

 
Diplomorpha ganpi, a small tree or shrub of fewer than 1m in height, grows in grasslands in fields and mountains, with thick adpressed hairs on branches; all the components die, leaving the bases each year. In alternate phyllotaxis, leaves put themselves in a spiral way; blades measure 2-4cm long, 1-2cm wide, in the shape of an oblong, with margins entire and significantly short petioles. Stem tips bear many white to light red flowers; calyx tubes are 7-1mm long, with tips cleft in four and adpressed hairs on the outsides. Bloom time July-October.
