Persicaria filiformis {Polygonum filiforme, Thunb.} Perennial, mostly somewhat hispid, 2-5 ft., with hollow branches: lvs.petioled, pubescent, ovate or oval, short-acuminate: fls. very small, whitish (or rose-colored?), remotely placed in spikes 5-8 in. or more long. Japan.—By some authors thought to be con-specific with the widespread P. virginianum, but lvs. less acuminate, bracts shorter- ciliate, fls. and frs. much smaller. Var. variegatum, Hort., has lvs. marbled with yellow and pale green: an attractive plant, forming good clumps 1 1/2ft. high and persisting when well established.
