1024. Laciniaria scariosa var. exuberans Lunell, var. nov. 

 Resembles var. praestans in the large size of the plant, 



in the large heads and in the leaves of the lower series being ample, 

 long-petioled and very distant, but the racemose inflorescence 

 occupies 1-2 the length of the stem, with more heads — these on 

 long and stout peduncles. With its short peduncles and crowded 

 heads, the inflorescence in var. praestans comes nearer to a spike.
