Sept.-Jan. (Herb. Thunb., Holm., Hk., Dr. Berol. Sd.) 
A rigid annual, well known from all the other species by the undulate, crenated, 
coriaceous, margined leaves. Stem }—1 feet high, subangulate by the decurrentleaves; 
much leafy from the base, and generally clothed with white spreading hairs ; bran 
as long, or often much longer than the stem, naked or leafy at the base, terminated 
by the quite naked, simple, or near the apex, 2-3-times forked, peduncles, each of 
which bears 2~—5 pedicellate flowers, Leaves spreading, about 1 inch long, 3-4 
lines wide, larger or smaller in different specimens, hairy, especially in the young, 
not flowering branches, but sometimes quite glabrous ; upper ones gradually smaller 
and narrower, those at the base of the peduncles 3—1 line long, entire. Pedicels in 
flower short, in fruit 3-1 inch long, glabrous as the peduncles and flowers. Calyx 
variable in size, 1-3 lines long ; lobes mostly broad, acute, shorter than tube, but 
sometimes as long or a little longer, acuminate. Corolla blue, 4-1 inch in diameter, 
with aeute lobes. Style with two glands below the stigma. Capsule 4-6 lines long, 
1o-nerved, crowned by the erect short calycine lobes. Valves 2 or 3 in the same 
peduncle. Seeds oblong or ovoid. It varies also, but rarely with 1 flowered, 
much elongate peduncles, and flattish, but always distinctly undulate leaves. 
33. W. Caledonica (Sond.); stem erect, branched, leafy, hairy, naked 
and glabrous at the apex ; leaves sessile, alternate, lanceolate or linear-
