A perennial plant of the legume family (APG classification: Fabaceae). The stem is erect and 40-90 cm tall. The leaves have 3 palmate leaflets, which are ovate or obovate, 5-7 cm long, and have white soft hairs on the underside. The base of the petiole has large leaf-like stipules. From May to August, a raceme appears at the top of the stem, and many yellow butterfly-shaped flowers bloom. The flowers are about 2.5 cm long, and the stamens are separate. The legumes are linear and flat, 7-11 cm long, and dehisce to scatter 10-15 seeds. It grows on the coast and is distributed in the temperate zones of Hokkaido, Honshu north of the Chubu region, East Asia, and northern North America. The name was apparently chosen to refer to the kabuki play "Meiboku Sendaihagi," and refers to the bush clover that grows in Sendai City.
