green viscidly hairy calyx teeth, otherwise very like the above; and 

 he has a variety of this called Korikanensis, found by Mr. Law, with 

 compound panicles, the spikes linear interrupted, bracts ovate, 

 abbreviated.

19. HAPLANTHUS. 



H. verticillaris. A shrubby plant, the upper parts covered
