Wasabia tenuis
is a perennial plant that occurs in damp areas
along mountain streams. Its stems crawl along the ground, and the
upper parts grow diagonally to a height of 20-30cm. Rhizomes are
short and radical leaves with long petioles, are in the shape of an
orbicular-ovate or renal-circular, 2-5cm across, with cordate bases
and wavy serrations on margins. On-stem leaves are small-sized and
have alternate phyllotaxis. Stem tips produce racemes that set
approximately 1 cm in diameter white 4-petaled flowers. Bloom time:
March-May.
