Information
branches pubescent; leaves ovate, elliptical, obovate, oblong or lanceolate, obtuse or acute, silky on both surfaces, especially the under side; peduncles much longer than the leaves, 1–2 flowered; calyces shaggy with curled, red-brown, coarse hairs, the segments deltoid, shorter than the tube or about equal to it Suberect or decumbent, 1–2 feet high, subsimple or much branched. Pubescence satiny, often fulvous or rust coloured. The long peduncles, and very roughly hairy calyces, with short and broad lobes sufficiently mark this species. The calyx lobes vary in length, and, though generally shorter than the tube, sometimes a little exceed it; their shape and pubescence are more constant.
Distribution
SOUTH AFRICA Hills round Capetown and Simon's Bay, common. Hott. Holland, E. & Z.! &c. (Herb. Hk., Bth., Sd., D.)
