stigma the upper is very short, the lower pointed forward 
and acute. 
It is quite distinct from Leonotis Leonurus and L. nepeti- 
folia, with both which species it nearly agrees in several 
particulars. From L. nepetifolia it differs in having no 
aristee to the teeth of the calyx, in the number of those 
teeth, and in the elongated outline of its leaves; but it 
agrees with it in habit. From L. Leonurus it may be dis- 
tinguished by its greater height, by the very long joints of 
the stem, by the cordate base of the leaves; and from both 
those species, not only by the velvety down which covers all 
the calyx, but also by the different outline and surface of 
the little bracteze.
