Habit, leaves, calyx, and capsule so 
nearly those of D. Bergiana, that without 
the corolla it is difficult to distinguish them. 
This part is, however, about eight or ten 
lines broad, and at the base instead of the 
two slight concavities, there are two curved | 
spurs, nearly an inch in length.
