Japanese monkshood is a genus of over 250 species. These herbaceous perennial plants are chiefly native to the mountainous parts of the Northern Hemisphere. The dark green leaves of japanese monkshood species lack stipules. They are palmate or deeply palmately lobed with five to seven segments. Each segment again is trilobed with coarse sharp teeth. The leaves have a spiral (alternate) arrangement. The tall, erect stem is crowned by racemes of large blue, purple, white, yellow, or pink zygomorphic flowers with numerous stamens. Two to 10 petals are present. The fruit is an aggregate of follicles, a follicle being a dry, many-seeded structure.
