Perennial, six to twelve inches high, branches few from a 

 slender root-stock; inflorescence glandular, hairy, below glabrous 

 or nearly so; leaves six to fourteen lines long, lanceolate, taper- 

 ing at the base, sessile or with slightly margined petioles, the

 teeth toward the apex; bracts similar to the upper leaves; 

 flowers congested in a terminal, rather small head-like cyme, 

 occasionally a very small inflorescence from the axil of an upper 

 leaf; calyx three and one-half to four lines long, lobes subu- 

 late, blue-margined, equalling the tube; corolla five to six lines 

 long, deep blue, tube narrow, expanding into the ample limb

 exserted and more or less declined; style also much exserted.
