A perennial plant of the lily family (APG classification: Liliaceae). The stem stands upright, 10-40 cm tall, and is sparsely covered with stiff hairs. The leaves are dark green, oblanceolate, and somewhat clasp the stem at the base. From September to October, 1-3 flower stalks about 5 mm long and densely covered with brown hairs appear from the leaf axils, and 5-7 yellow flowers bloom upward at the tip. It is endemic to Miyazaki Prefecture, but has been widely cultivated since ancient times.
