Vaccunium smallii / Oobasunoki オオバスノキ

 
Vaccunium smallii, a deciduous shrub growing to 1-1.5m in height, inhabits forest edges or shrublands. With petioles densely short-haired, leaves are of alternate phyllotaxis in the shape of a long oblong or oval-oblong, margins having a bend, sharply pointed fine serrations. Flowers, 1-4 in number, bloom facing downward in racemes borne at leaf axils on previous year's branches. Corollas are 6-7mm long, bell-shaped, shallowly cleft in five, and each lobe bends backward at the tips. Bloom time: June-July.
