A perennial plant of the Rosaceae family that rarely grows in alpine grasslands in central Honshu and on Mount Yubari in Hokkaido. In summer, it produces small yellow-green flowers in clusters. Unusually for the Rosaceae family, it produces tetrameric flowers with four sepals, four accessory calyxes, no petals, and four stamens. There are several dozen species of the same genus in the European Alps and other high mountains in the subarctic and temperate zones of the Northern Hemisphere, and the Japanese name for one of these species is a free translation of the European common name for Lady's Mantle.
