Gnaphalium japonicum is a perennial herb found in
roadsides or wastelands in fields and mountains, growing to 15-30cm
in height and propagates itself by extending runners. Radical leaves
are alive in their flowering time, 2.5-10cm long, in a linear-lanceolate
shape; lanate (or fine fluff) exists slightly on surfaces and
thickly on backsides - thus, looking whitish. On-stem leaves are a
few linear. Flower heads gather together in a ballway on stem tips,
and lanceolate bracts attach in a radical pattern beneath them.
