Description
Anemonastrum flaccidum grows to about 0.1 m (4 in) tall. It flowers from March to June, depending on the region. The flowers are approximately 2 cm in diameter and have white sepals that resemble petals. Many stems bear two flower stalks, a characteristic that gives rise to the plant’s Japanese name, 二輪草 (nirinso, meaning "two-flowered plant"). The plant spreads by rhizomes and often forms dense colonies.
Range & habitat
Anemonastrum flaccidum is native to the Amur River region, Sakhalin, central, eastern, and southern China, Korea, and Japan.
