The mixture of Ephedra sinica (9 g), apricot kernel (9g), gesso (18 g), lobed kudzuvine root (9 g), Scutellaria baicalensis (9 g), Bombyx batryticatus (15 g), and Houttuynia
cordate (3 g) was decocted in 1.5 L water till condensing to 300 ml.
Herbaceous plant is characterized with colourful branches or unbranched stem reaching up to 1m, branched taproot system, petiolated leaves, triangular leaf blade with the length being almost equal with width, 2-8 cm, and
cordate or hastate leaf bases.
Leaf blade oblong-elliptic to elliptic-ovate, 13-45 cm long; base asymmetrical in sympodial leaves,
cordate to deeply auriculate, the biggest lobe half or completely overlapping the petiole; pinnately veined with 8-16 secondary veins; ciliate and minutely pubescent on both surfaces.
At this time, almost 50% of gametophytes were
cordate or slightly asymmetric in shape (Fig.
Besides, it has apex acuminate, base
cordate, margin entire or dentate, sub coriaceous, fulvous tomentose, 7-nerved at base.
Jorgensen, differs in possessing flower with erect operculum segmented in the upper half in filaments and with tiny filaments inserted in middle adaxially; bracts glandular-serrate; biglandular petiole occasionally with 1 additional distal gland, 3-lobed lamina divided 1/3-1/4 of its size with
cordate base glandular-serrate.
Leaf shape changed from
cordate to a slightly elongated
cordate by the increase in length particularly at wavelengths shorter than 449 nm and the general decrease in width at all treatments except the shortest wavelength interval.
On older trees, the leaves are generally 5-15 cm long, unlobed,
cordate at the base and rounded to acuminate at the tip, and serrated on the margins.
cordifolia have orbicular leaves, rounded or
cordate at base, often bullate, usually green; inflorescence spherical at first, usually becoming umbraculiform with spreading branches; flowers mostly spreading or erect, broadly campanulate; petals broadly ovate to orbicular, abruptly contracted into the claw (Yeo, 1966).
Subcordate to subcircular, slightly longer than wide, 39 [micro]m long, 32 [micro]m wide; operculum
cordate, almost covering the orifice and obscuring the lingula, 26 [micro]m long, 22 [micro]m wide.
Leaves are ovate and are broad and subreniform, maybe
cordate or obtuse to acute and margins are serrate-crenate.
have 3 varieties including Puk Bung Thai (bigger stem,
cordate leaf), Puk Bung Jeen (green stem, hastate leaf) and Puk Bung Dang (greenish purple stem).
The leaves are generally characterized by acuminate apices (although they can be straight, convex, or retuse) and convex to rounded to slightly
cordate bases.
The ventral valve has small triangular teeth and thin laterally divergent dental plates, which merge with the laterally arched or weakly wavy septa bordering the oval to
cordate muscle field.
