A characteristic species of wide range and easily recognized when 
taken in a broad and naturél sense, but varying considerably in the 
amount and persistence the pubescence, in the density of the 
inflorescence, and in the dentation of the leaves. The following forms 
are often, but not always, distinguishable: 
Forma typicum. Leaves densely and permanently canescent- 
tomentose beneath, the reticulation of the veins being so covered as 
to be obscure or invisible. (Synonymy and exsiccatae as above.) 
_ Forma suaveolens (HBK.) Hieron. Leaves somewhat harsher, 
above more bullate, beneath at least in age thinly tomentose or me ly 
soft-pubescent, the reticulated veins clearly evident.— Hieron.
