rolla blue, or purple; tube length of calyx; segments of the 
limb oblong-roundish ; processes of the throat erect, tomentose. 
This plant when tender in the spring is eaten boiled in Upland. 
The tube of the corolla is melliferous, and the bees are very 
fond of it. This is not the Anchisa, but the Bugloss of the 
officinal writers. It appears to be nearly similar to Borage; 
the leaves being less juicy, and the roots more mucilaginous ; 
these, with the leaves and flowers, are ranked among the articles 
of the Materia Medica, bnt they are very seldom made use of. 
“In China,” Loureiro says, “the plant is in great esteem for 
gently promoting the eruption of the small-pox."
