This plant seems to be intermediate between P. cephalantha, 
Franch., of which it has the helmet suddenly contracted into 
a long beak, and P. longipetiolata, Franch., which it resembles 
in habit. 
It differs from P. cephalantha, Franch., by :— 
1. Its habit is quite different ; its inflorescence is much 
looser ; the whole plant is covered by white woolly hairs.
