5-5-32 axilg at or in lfy cymes terminating short
branches making more scattered effect than in
F. laevis where they are grouped at ends of branches.
(3) Corolla exceeds calyx by only 1 mm so that flo look def.
smaller and edges not denticulate
5-5-32 Frankenia linarioides L. forma intermedia
Kunz II/190 = F. intermedius DC L. Bar 57 = F. intermedius DC.
Bon 40, Coate I/65 Fl. Phl. Porto-Pt. Cf with F. pulverulenta
& F. laevis. Diff from F. laevis in that (1) plant presents
no sprawling unkempt appearance with branches
repeatedly branching & longish naked internodes above
between the short lfy tips; instead the branches are
almost (5-8 cm) simple with lfty globs very regularly
& closely together making whole branch lfy & (because
lobes larger towards tip) the outline of branch grows
nider towards to tip. (2) and since these lfy clusters
bear flo (they are really many small branches), this tends
to present effect of elongated inflorescence. (3) ats are def.
velvety (in F. laevis, glabrous or only pulverulent) & calyx
def. denticulate (in F. laevis, glabrous). (4) the deeper green in
the calyx of this plant a deeper more bronze effect
than F. laevis. (5) corolla brighter red colored than F.
lacvis but almost as large, edges like F. laevis denticulate
