Saururus chinensis is a perennial
herb that inhabits marshes or the water's edge, growing up to 0.6-1m
in height, with a foul odor. Leaves are of opposite phyllotaxis, in
the ovate-like cordate shape, 5-15cm long. Spikes of 10-15cm long
emerge from axils, with many small flowers. As the season to bloom
comes, leaves on the upper part of the stem turn white and return to
the original light green in due course. Bloom time: June-August. |
