It is a deciduous shrub of the legume family (APG classification: Fabaceae). It can grow to over 2 meters in height. The branches spread out horizontally and are somewhat zigzagged. The flowers are smaller than those of the Japanese bush clover, 7 to 8 mm long. The standard petals are pale yellow with purple spots at the base, the wing petals are purple, and the keel petals are yellowish-white. The fruit is oblong and about 1 cm long. It has a long flowering period, beginning in June and continuing to bloom until around October. It grows in a slightly different habitat to other bush clover plants, and is commonly found in semi-shaded forests and on rocks along ridges. It grows in Honshu, Shikoku, and Kyushu, except for the Japan Sea side from the Tohoku region to the Hokuriku region, and is also distributed in Chugoku. [Shinobu Akiyama October 18, 2019] The leaves are alternate in two rows and spread out flat. The flowering period is long, from June to October. The standard petals are pale yellow, the wing petals are purple, and the keel petals are yellowish white. ©Shogakukan Photo by Masatoshi Hirose "> Yellowfin tuna Source: Shogakukan Encyclopedia Nipponica About Encyclopedia Nipponica Information | Legend |
