9-14-34 Veronica persica Pois. Cote III 35, Bonz 37, Bu4
349 = V. Tournefortii. CC. level #728, SVI 393. Flvdr.
fr. Cf. with V. polita. Sterile plants R.B.K cannot
tell apart. V. persica has hairs as desc. SVI but
V. polita might be considered to have the same.
When fr is not advanced the best distinction
is that V. persica has style 2mm or more and
always bent to one side (V. polita has style less
than 2mm and always straight.)
In V. persica fr. cells def. sharp edged vs flattened (in
V. polita fr. cells swollen rounded with no fl edge.
V. persica (like many specimens observed at
this season this year has lower lobes, corolla lighter
than the others (R.B.K is uncertain impression, perhaps
false, that in the spring the corolla lobes were all of
same shade.) See 4-4-34 for comparison of V. polita
with V. agrestis.
