or nearly so, in dense clusters, sepals 5, lance“late, toothed, 
petals 5, stamens 5; capsule 5-celled, valves brittle, edges 
turned in, seeds ovoid, many. 
large, annual, smooth, stems succulent; leaves 24-6 
in., lanceolate, sharply toothed, teeth gland-tipped, long- 
pointed, stalked, stipules of gland-tipped bristles ; flowers
