 tato ; ramis brevibus patentibus ; racemis laxis 3.5-10 cm. longis ; rhachi

 o-6-floris subdistantibus ; bracteis late ovatis mucronatis 4-7 mm. 

 longis subpersistentibus laxe albo-villosis ; pedicellis 1-3 mm. longis ; 

 calyce anguste campanulato anthesi 7 mm. fructifero 8-9 mm. longo, 

 labio superiore acuminato ascendenti, inferiore rectiusculo cum lobis 2
