Mosla japonica var. thymolifera / Shirobanayamajiso シロバナヤマジソ

 
 Mosla japonica var. thymolifera: An annual herb; much is not known about its distribution. I found a small population on a sunny, rocky cliff by the seacoast on August 25, 2014. Since then, I have yet to find one. Stems are 4-ridged, with many downward white hairs, and leaves are opposite, in the shape of an oblong-ovate, 1-3cm long, with sparse serrations and long hairs on margins, and many hairs on surfaces. Stem tips and axils emerge with 1-3cm long inflorescences, setting around 3cm in diameter, with labiate flowers. Bloom time: August-October.
