Scutellaria stringillosa / Namikisou ナミキソウ

 
Unlike the other species in the same genus, Scutellaria stringillosa, a perennial plant 10-40cm tall, occurs in sandy soil on seashores or near them, propagating itself by extending slender rhizomes. Stems and leaves have pubescent hairs. Leaves are of opposite phyllotaxis, 1.5-3.5cm long and 1-1.5cm wide, in the shape of an oblong, with rounded tips and obtuse serrations on the margins. Axils on the upper parts set two of each blue-purple labiate flower to bloom facing the same direction. Corollas, 2-2.2cm long, abruptly bend to stand erect. Bloom time: June-September.
