in narrow clefts, in mountainous regions in the
east-to-middle-section of Shimane Pref. Stems, cylindrical, extend
erect or diagonally upwards, approximately 50cm in height. Leaves,
opposite in lower parts and partly alternate in upper portions, are
linear to linear oblong-lanceolate, the tips pointed, and the bases
taper toward petioles. Branch tops bear 5-10cm long racemes with
many blue-purple flowers; the racemes bend diagonally upwards at
approximately halfway. The flowers are cleft in four. Stamens, two
in number, are prominent: Bloom time: August-September. |
