Persicaria nepalensis is a perennial 10-40cm tall, found on
pathways running between rice fields or at damp locations in
mountainous regions. The stems branch well and spread out laterally,
often becoming reddish. Leaves are of alternate phyllotaxis, each
1-5cm long, oval with the bases wedge-shaped, and their petioles
have wings spreading out to become a pair of ear-like and embrace
the branches. Flowers are abundant on the branch tops and leaf
axils. Bloom time: August-October.
