Limnophila sessiflora is
a perennial herb that inhabits paddy fields, shallow marshy places,
or ponds; rhizomes crawl in the mud. Leaves above the water's
surface are in whorls of 5-8, 1-2cm long, 3-7mm wide, and pinnately
deeply cut in, while in-water leaves tear themselves in a
thread-like way. Axils on the above waters' leaves generate small
red-purple labiate flowers; calyces are deeply cut in five and have
vellus hairs. Capsules measure approximately 4mm in length and are
spherically ovoid. Bloom time: August-October. |
