Information

Perennial or shrubby herb to 0.5 m tall with several erect to decumbent sparsely branched stems from a woody rootstock (rarely a shrub); stems glandular-puberulent to -puberulous or densely so, also with scattered to dense pilose hairs up to 3 mm long. Leaves ovate to elliptic (rarely narrowly so), largest 3–7≈1–3.3 cm, apex acute to subacuminate, subglabrous to puberulent or puberulous, with stalked capitate glands when young, often also with scattered pilose hairs. Flowers in condensed axillary 1–3(–12)-flowered cymes, more rarely in elongated dichasial cymes; peduncles up to 2(–13) mm long, branches up to 7(–20 in open dichasia) mm long; outer bracts lanceolate to elliptic, up to 1.8 cm long or as inner bracts and bracteoles: linear to lanceolate, up to 8 mm long, with scattered to dense capitate glands. Calyx glandular-puberulent to -puberulous or densely so and with scattered to dense long glossy pilose hairs some or all of which over 1 mm long, 12–18(–22 in fruit) mm long; teeth 5–9(–10 in fruit) mm long, shorter than tube (rarely same length). Corolla slightly 2-lipped, pure white with pale yellow throat, puberulent and with scattered capitate glands, 20–26 mm long of which the linear tube 7–11 mm, the throat 6–10 mm and the limb 4–7 mm, throat longer than or same length as limb; lobes oblong to ovate, erect or spreading in lower lip. Free part of filaments 3–6 mm long, hairy at base, glabrous at apex; anthers 1.5–2 mm long, spurs ± 1/2 mm long. Capsule 11–13 mm long. Seed ± 2.5 mm long.
