Salvia akiensis / Terihanatsunotamurasou テリハナツノタムラソウ

 
Salvia akiensis,  a relatively newly discovered perennial species, occurs in Shimane and Hiroshima Prefectures, with the former inhabiting a shady countryside forest edge. The latter reportedly occurs along a mountain stream. The 30- 50 cm tall, square-in-section stem organizes a rosette-like mass of leaves with ternate and pentatrinate-leaves at the base. With prominent hairs on the corolla, the light bluish-purple flowers appear in May in the prefecture.
