Fagopyrum
cymosum, a perennial herb 40-100cm in
height, reportedly originating in central Asia,
escaped from cultivation, and some grow wild. Stems
grow in clusters from tubers, stand erect and branch
well, and are hollow, occasionally tinging brown.
Leaves, wavy, are alternate, 4-12cm long, 3-11cm
wide, in the shape of a triangular to cordate, with
entire margins and 2-10cm- long petioles. Axils on
upper parts emerge racemes with 5-6mm across white
flowers. Bloom time: September-October. |
