Strobilanthes flexicaulis is a species of flowering plant in the family Acanthaceae, native to the Ryukyus and Taiwan.[1] A much-branched subshrub reaching 1 m (3 ft), it is found at elevations from 200 to 2,300 m (700 to 7,500 ft), typically beside streams in forests.[2]

[edit | edit source]The following varieties are accepted:[1]
- Strobilanthes flexicaulis var. flexicaulis – Ryukyus, Taiwan
- Strobilanthes flexicaulis var. tashiroi (Hayata) T.Yamaz. – entire range
All Strobilanthes flexicaulis var. flexicaulis individuals simultaneously flower at six-year intervals, and then die, but S. f. var. tashiroi does not exhibit periodic mass flowering.[3]
