[Overview]
A perennial found mainly in western Japan, in slightly moist places such as valleys in mountain woods.
It tends to prefer somewhat drier places than Oba-tanetsukebana.
The whole plant is often hairless; the stem creeps along the ground at the base and branches, and the upper part rises upright.
The stem is not tinged with purple, or if so, only at the base.
There are basal leaves and leaves alternate on the stem; they are pinnately compound.
There are 1–4 pairs of lateral leaflets; each leaflet is broadly obovate to round, and the terminal leaflet is clearly larger than the lateral leaflets.
The leaflet margins are hairy.
The flowers are borne in racemes and are white and 4-petaled.
The petals are obovate, 4–6 mm long.
There are 6 stamens.
The fruit is a hairless silique 2.5–3 cm long and ascending.
Inside the fruit, many seeds about 1 mm long are arranged in one row.
