the stems aiul foliage scabrous witli a minute glandular tomentum, and more 

 or less spi'iukled or covered with short rigid appressed hairs. Leaves narrow- 

 oblong or linear-cuneate, mostly 3-toothed at the end, and sometimes Avith 1 

 or 2 small teeth on each side lower down, the midrib very prominent under- 

 neath, othewise flat, complicate or the margins very slightly recurved, rarely 

 iibove \ in. long except in some very luxuriant Western specimens. Flowers 

 smaller than in H. corymhom, but with the same acute calyx-segments and 

 deep blue corollas, the lobes often acute or shortly acuminate but sometimes 

 qnite obtuse. Fruit, where known, transversely rugose and rather acute.—

The eastern speciiueus have usually the calyx scarcely above 2 lines long, and the corolla 

 also small ; some of the western specimens have the flowers quite as small, in others they are 

 considerably larger, but the plant has never the long spreading hairs of H. eoryralom, nor 

 the dense silky hairs of R. seridflora.
