Synurus excelsus
is a perennial plant found in sunny grasslands, characterized by
white arachnoid hairs throughout its stems. The stems are thick,
with a tinge of purple-brown; the leaves on the lower parts are
10-20 cm long, triangular, with bases that expand laterally in a
hastate manner, incised margins, and dense white fluffs on the back
surfaces. Leaves on the upper parts gradually become smaller,
eventually growing into ovate or triangular shapes. Flower heads,
4-5cm in diameter, set themselves downward; tubular flowers are
black-purple, involucral bracts form many slender rows, and the tips
are sharp. Bloom time: October. |
