Rubus corchorifolius
is a deciduous shrub that inhabits forest edges in mountainous
regions, exhibiting various forms, including standing and crawling.
New branches wear dense, velvety hairs but disappear at a particular
stage. Leaves are of alternate phyllotaxis, and blades measure
4-10cm in length, in the shape of a broad ovate, occasionally cleft
in three, with sharply serrated margins. White flowers, 1.5-2cm in
diameter, bloom facing downwards on short sprigs that emerged from
the previous year's branches. Dense, velvety hairs exist on petioles
and sepals. Bloom time: April-May. |
