1. Differences in Plants

The White Horse Bone plant is relatively small, with a height of about 25 to 45 centimeters, with thick branches, slender and weak branches, and more dense branches.

The height of the June Snow plant is about 90 cm, a bit taller, has an unpleasant smell, and has sparse branches.

2. Differences in leaves

The leaves of Baimagu are very small and oval in shape. The color of the leaves is generally all green, but there are a few varieties with green tops inlaid with milky white.

The leaves of June Snow are oval to oblanceolate in shape, slightly larger, about 6-22 mm long and 3-6 mm wide. The leaf surface is smooth without small hairs, and the petiole is short.

3. Differences in Flowers

The white horse bone corolla is white in color and short in length, about 6 to 8 mm. The lobes are oblong-lanceolate. The flowering period is early, concentrated in spring, mostly from April to June.

The color of the snowflake crown in June is still light red, and the lobes expand outward. The flowering period is later than the previous one, about May to July.
