intermedio plerumque basi obtuso v. in petiolulum angustato, 
lateralibus geminis basi valde inzqualibus, latere exteriore 
deorsum angustato, interiore rotundato, v. in lobum producto; 
petiolulo intermedio elongato, nunc pollicari. Flores ut in 
C. tenuicauli. 
The oblique bases of the more regularly and conspicuously. 
serrated leaflets, and smaller flowering panicle, will at once dis- 
tinguish this from the C. Japonicus.

In the unusual form of the flower this is related to the 
C. cymosa, but the stipitate glands, or glandular hairs of the 
petals, form a prominent and beautiful diagnostic character, and 
the whole plant is much less pubescent.
