Humulus lupulus var. cordifolius / Karahanasou カラハナソウ

 
Humulus lupulus var. cordifolius is a vine perennial that grows on dry grounds. It has downward hairs and hooked prickle stems and leaves. The leaves are of opposite phyllotaxis, in an orbicular-ovate shape, occasionally cleft in three, 5-12cm long, with coarse serrations on margins. They are dioecious: male flowers, light yellow, set themselves many in panicles, and female ones are spherical spike-like orbicular-ovate. Two flowers each are inside bracts. Bloom time: August-September.
