Swertia bimanculata is
a biennial inhabiting the water's edges and fringes in mountainous
regions, stems growing to 60-90cm in height. Radical leaves are
large-sized, in the shape of a long oblong, but have gone when in
bloom. On-stem leaves are ovate or lanceolate, 5-12cm long, tips
pointed, bases cuneate, no serrations on margins, and three
prominent veins on surfaces. Stem apexes branch and set white
flowers; corollas measure approximately 2cm in diameter, with
black-purple dots and two yellow-green nectaries on each piece.
Bloom time: September-October. |
