Fallopia multiflora is a perennial, climbing herb that commonly inhabits roadsides, vacant lots, and forest edges. It is an indigenous species to China, having been introduced to Japan hundreds of years ago. Leaves are oval-shaped with heart-shaped bases, 3-7.5cm long, and the tips taper off; the petioles have joints from which leaves tend to fall. Inflorescences are conical, with both male and female flowers mingling in each of them. Bloom time: August-October.
