ill. = S. inflata Sim Bar 58, Box 43. Bud "roadhome".
Petals in bud imbricate some entirely outside,
some entirely inside the rest overlapping with one
side out & one side in (Seeded, BVH xxiv) St. to 18 in
high, white or glaucous-glaucous. Lower leaves lanceolate
to 3½ x 1 in, the lower ones mostly gone but seem
narrowed to what might be called petiole. Infl.
seems to be dichotomous cymes as in all BVH# 135
i.e. 2 terminal branches with a flat which
matures before these or branches, the branches
branching in the same manner at least 2 times
more. Calyx at this stage glabrous, bladdery, the
netted veins not strongly marked. Petals ranged
at base of blade. Note calyx teeth have very blunt
woolly pubescence on edges.
