Hello, I found this plant in a forest near Kyoto. Height about 70cm. It's certainly a Lamiaceae, and the pinnate leaves lead me to genus Salvia (but I'm not sure). But then? Does anybody have an idea? Michael
I don't know the species, but those definitely look like Salvia stamens (single anther cell at end of elongated connective)
Hello David, thank you for confirmation. I labeled the picture as Salvia spec., but looked for some japanese forum. Finally someone identified the plant as Salvia lutescens var. intermedia, which seems to be an endemic japanese species. Michael
