Salvia japonica,
a perennial 20-50cm in height, occurs on
roadsides, fields, and mountains. Leaves are opposite; they are
so-called imparipinnate compound leaves with 3-7 lobes. The
leaflets, 2-5cm long, are in the shape of a broad oval. The stem
tops emerge as 10-25cm-long spikes, in which small, blue-purple,
labiate flowers bloom in whorls. Bloom time: July-November.
