triquetrous, obtuse, in some specimens rather thick adr ciliate and 2 to 
3 lines long, in others slender, smooth, and 1 in. long or more. Flowers in 
the upper axils on pedicels often attaining 3 in. Bracteoles cireumsciss near 
the base, leaving the whole calyx-tube exposed. Calyx silky-pubescent, tube 
about 2 lines long ; lobes pan nearly as long, obovate, slightly denticulate, 
Petals pink, more than twice as lon g as the calyx; lobes obovate, shortly 
fringed. Stamens shorter iis the etals ; filaments forked at the end, each 
branch bearing one of the anther-cells, the alternate stamens rather lar ger.
