Supplementary remarks:
Two very distinct formes here but I cannot fit the museum specimens into two groups corresponding with them. I find leaves of various lengths and corolla tubes 4 to 6 mm in length. I am noting the differences in my paper. If two formes had to be named it would be necessary to determine which was the true lessonianum and this could scarecly be done without reference to the type. W.R.B.O. Refering -> 1127/3 & 1129/13
