Persicaria filiformis

About

Persicaria filiformis is a species of flowering plant in the family Polygonaceae, native to the Kuril Islands, Japan, Korea, Myanmar, the Philippines and Vietnam. It was first described as Polygonum filiforme in 1784 by Carl Thunberg and transferred to the genus Persicaria in 1819 by Takenoshin Nakai. The species has been treated as the variety filiformis of Persicaria virginiana, a North American species. The leaves are light green, eliptical, and about 15 cm (5.9 in) long. They are commonly marked with a pair of brown spots near the center of the leaf.
