This species only occurs in the upper part of this hill. It is 
a rough hispid plant, with fairly large white flowers streaked 
with violet in the throat. The flowers are clustered on the 
top of the peduncle, not racemose as in the preceding, and there 
are sometimes additional branches springing from the terminal 
cluster. The stamens lie in the flower to one side of the 
stigma, which does not pass through them or behind them as 
in many species.
