Pubescent ; leaves 
abruptly petiolate, o-

Stem 2”3 feet high. Leaves on petioles nearly an inch long, very 
obtuse> rather than cordate at base, slightly acuminate and strongly ser- 
rate. Bracteas about twice as long as the calyx. Corolla small, pale 
red. 
In my specimens which were collected by Dr. Macbride on the Saluda 
mountains, the stem and the leaves, except along the margins are nearly 
glabrous, if they had exhibited whorls below the terminal one, according 
to the habit of the genus, they would pretty accurately represent the Ori- 
ganum Clinopodioides of Walt. p. 163*
