This plant which was discovered also by Mr. Lyon along the base of 

 the mountains of Carolina, but principally in Curke county N. C. I have 

 always supposed to be the C. Latifolia of Muhlenberg's Catalogue. Plant 

 generally about 2 feet, obtusely angled, very glabrous, leaves opposite, 

 on petioles nearly an inch long, tapering and somewhat acuminate at base, 

 in my specimens not even obtuse much less cordate, about 4 long by 2 

 wide. Floioers as usual in a dense terminal spike. Segments of the ca- 

 lyx oblong and their margins with those of the bracteal leaves pubescent 

 or rather finely fringed. Corolla rose coloured, rather smaller than thos<f 



of the first species. 

 Flowers August.
