Scutellaria amabilis, a perennial of 10-25cm in height,
inhabits forests in hilly districts. Stems stand upright, with a
square cross-section and its ridges having fine upright short hairs
almost invisible to the naked eye. Rhizomes are thin and sharp and
crawl not. Leaves are of opposite phyllotaxis; blades are broad ovate-
to egg-heart-shaped, 1-2cm long, 0.8-2cm wide, with tips obtuse,
bases shallowly cordate, and coarse serrations on margins. The upper
and backside surfaces are both with fine short hairs. Inflorescences
set somewhat sparse labiate flowers in them. Corollas are
blue-purple, 2-2.5cm long, and bend at bases to stand erect. Bloom
time: May-June. |
