Pseudopyxis depressa,
a 3-10cm tall perennial, inhabits a leafy shade of trees in hilly
districts. Stems equip tip-pointed oval leaves with a petiole,
setting one to two flowers at axils or on branch tips. The corollas
measure approximately 2.5cm in width and are split into five, each
shaped like a long oval. Stamens, 5 in number, are positioned inside
the upper part of the corolla tube, and filaments are significantly
short. Bloom time: May-June. |
