Lindera praecox,
a deciduous shrub found on somewhat damp mountainsides or slopes in
hilly districts, has trunks with gray-brown bark. It generally grows
in bundles to form a ball-shaped to ovate-sphere tree. Leaves are in
an alternate arrangement, 7-12cm long, 7-10cm wide, triangular-broad
obovate, upper parts generally cleft in three, and bases cuneate.
However, non-cleft small ones do occur at times. Leaf margins are
entire, and three veins are prominent. Dioecious: 3-5 yellow flowers
bloom together before leaves develop. Female flowers are fewer in
number than males. Bloom time: April. |
