This is the same population which I have posted an observation where I revisited in September 2021. This was earlier in the growing season when the leaves were younger so there are are blond hairs on the undersides. Apexes are blunt and sometimes notched.

Myrica picardae (syn). Camino a Valle de Lilís desde campamento base La Compartición. En forma de arbusto. No se observó inflorescencia o frutos. Ambiente húmedo y frío. Suelo cubierto por agujas de Pinus occidentalis. Otoño.

It is also distributed near Iwata City, Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan, and near the prefectural border between Shizuoka Prefecture and Aichi Prefecture. It is small, has round leaves, and blooms in late autumn.

静岡県磐田市付近および静岡県と愛知県の県境付近に分布する。小型で葉が丸く、ヒメカンアオイに似るが、ヒメカンアオイが早春咲きなのに対し、本種は晩秋に咲く。アキザキヒメカンアオイも近接して分布するが、この種とは、萼裂片上面に腺毛と短毛がある点が異なる。磐田市桶ヶ谷沼付近にて。
