7-18-33 branched throughout, the lower branches
as long as main st. & to thickish v def "velve-hirsute"
as are the two lowest if now 2 cm from base yet with
branch in its axil. no sign of rosette. This lowest lf
6.5cm long x1 cm wide, lanceolate & tapered to base
but could not be called petioled. Upper lvs acule, flng,
broadly acute. Calyx 4 mm long on the longest pedicels
8mm long. Calyx cut fully to middle (the lobes erect v
touching in fr.) at all, the bars (except toward tips &
later) hooked. Corolla tube shorter than calyx. Corolla
limb concave (not more than 2 mm diam in the fle
remaining to be studied?) go blue which is perhaps
dinged purplish (not what one thinks of as "forget-
me-not"-blue. An opening bud is def faint.
Looks right for Myosotis; fls without bracts as this can-
not be any other genus of the family.)
