Phytolacca acinosa is a large-sized perennial herb
that grows as tall as 1m with green stems and leaves 10-20cm long
egg-shaped oblong. Inflorescences are erect and do not droop even
during fruiting time. Flowers are white, approximately 8mm long, and
fruit separates itself in 8 mericarps and matures in black-purple.
This species resembles Phytolacca japonica in some respects;
with P. acinosa, anthers are pink, while P. japonica
is white. Another clear difference lies in seed capsules; with P.
acinosa, they separate, while the other does not. Bloom time:
June-September. |
