Neanotis hirsuta is an annual herb in the shade of a
tree in fields, mountains, or even on roadsides. Stems are soft,
branch and spread on the ground, grow 20-40cm long, and have roots
that emerge from nodes; the top portions often rise obliquely.
Leaves are opposite, 2-6cm long, 1-2cm wide, oval to oblong-ovate,
and tender, with upper and lower surfaces with white vellus hairs.
Stem tips or axils bear some white flowers in clusters, and calyces
have white vellus coats. Bloom time: August-September. |
