Lycopus lucidus is
a perennial of about 1m tall herb growing in wetlands with white
rhizomes. Stems are thick, with nodes with some white hairs, and the
whole, exclusive of the nodes, are glabrous. Dense leaves are
alternate themselves, 6-13cm long, 1.5-4cm wide, broadly lanceolate,
with coarse serrations on margins. Axils generate many orderly,
small white labiate flowers. Corollas measure about 5mm long, and
lower lips are more significant than the lower. Calyxes are cleft
halfway in five, and the lobes are spiny with sharply pointed tips.
Stamens are 2 in number. Bloom time: August-October. |
