but plant here diff. looks to the plant well known
in Majorca. St slightly rough hairy at base but

often purple tinged as in May. Lvs seem more cut
than those in May. St. branching at base and
above so that in finest will have a very bushy
appearance. Upper lvs very similar to the lower
and though smaller and rather distinctly
