Lyonia ovalifolia var. elliptica is
a deciduous shrub to a small tree found on hills or dry mountains,
ridges, or slopes. Leaves are alternate; blades 5-10cm long, 2-6cm
wide, broad oval-like oblong, with tips pointed, bases somewhat
heart-shaped, margins entire, both surfaces with sparse adpressed
hairs, and dense hairs on the backside midribs to the upper parts of
the petioles. The petioles measure 5-10mm in length. The previous
year's branch axils produce 4-6cm long racemes and set many white
flowers facing downward. Corollas are 8-10mm long, urceolate,
shallowly cleft in five, and the outsides are with sparse fine
hairs. Bloom time: May-July. |
