About Fallopia baldschuanica (Regel) Holub

Fallopia baldschuanica is a vining plant with woody climbing stems that reach at least 10 metres (33 ft) in length. Its leaves are pointed oval or nearly triangular, up to 10 centimetres (4 in) long, and grow on petioles. Its inflorescence is an open arrangement of narrow, branching drooping or spreading clusters of white flowers, with each cluster reaching a maximum length of 15 centimetres (6 in). Flowers hang from short pedicels. Each five-lobed flower is just under one centimeter long, and ranges in color from white to greenish or pale pink; it sometimes turns bright pink as the fruit develops. The fruit is a shiny black achene, approximately 2 millimetres (5⁄64 in) wide.
