(seen from the front); besides this, the whole flower is subject 



to torsion aroiind its axis to the right; this causes the upper 



lip to slope even more to the right, while its helmet-shaped 



apex, and the part of the style turned downwards, point 



to the left; the lower hp stands almost in the vertical plane 



(Lindman, p. 84, PI. lY, fig. 47, A and B). 



"The calyx is dark-red, the corolla pale yellow or brim- 



stone-coloured. On the lower lip there are two conspicuous 



convexities covered with 



hairs, the corolla-tube is

 same time as the anthers 



are open), but usually it protrudes more or less, from 



1.5 to 2.5 mm or even more (without being moved away 



from its natural position up to the dorsal side of the upper 



lip). Even in the bud it protrudes somewhat, so that the 



stigma comes into contact with the lower lip; the former 



is even at that time papillose, and appears ripe, consequently, 



slight protogyny appears to prevail. Afterwards the anthers 



are seen to have dehisced, without the length of the style 



having altered; consequently, self-poUination appears to be 



able to take place, but not easily, because although it is 



true that the anthers come to stand vertically above the 



stigma, yet the distance between them is comparatively 



great". (Warming, p. 219, fig. 33, reproduced here as Fig. 21).
