The stellate hairs are large and crowded, and there are also long hairs in addition ; 
the stipules are hairy at the margins; the lamina is not crisped to the same extent as in 
N. pedicularifolia. The corolla-tube is practically absent.

Peru: Prov. Sandia, inter Poto et Ananca, 4700 m., Weberbauer, 963 (Herb. Berol. : 
Pl. 29. figs. 3, 4) ; Andes of Pelechuco, R. Pearce (Herb. Kew.). 
This species, which is the most northerly form of the pedicularifolia-group, is also the 
stoutest and the most robust, having a thick caudex of as much as 2°5 em. in diameter; 
it shows considerable similarity to N. pedicularifolia, and has been sometimes included 
in herbaria under that species. The broader and longer petals, the beaked carpels, as 
well as the large leaves with their characteristic sulphurous tomentum afford a ready 
means of distinguishing this species (Pl. 29. figs. 3, 4). The stamens are arranged ina 
more or less oblong head, as in W. pedicularifolia, the free portions of the filaments being 
very short; but there is a short corolla-tube of 1:5-2:5 mm. in length beset, like the 
base of the petals, with stellate hairs.
