Viola grypoceras var. exilis is
a miniature type of Viola
grypoceras,
the leaves being relatively small compared to its original species,
measuring one to two centimeters in length. Another significant
difference is that the leaves' base margins are close to straight
like the bases of triangles, and the flowers are also smaller than
the originals, 1.5cm in diameter. In a scientific journal, a viola
expert will describe this variety as a new species; he has already
alleged its Japanese name as San'ingata-tachitsubosumire. |
