The lower leaves four or five in a whorl. Flowers in terminal spikes, pale 
blue. Flowering stem stiff and upright, not at all corresponding with 
the idea given by the trivial name, which applies only to the root.

It is now proved that Linraeus never saw the A. repens of Dillenius, but 
described it from that writer ; and from the specimens of A. Monspessula- 
num in the Linnaean Herbarium, Smith ascertains them to be precisely 
the same. We have received this species from different Botanists, and 
gathered on the same spot, with both appellations. E.)
