Annual, glabrous, smooth, or roughish; stem slender, branched, i°-2i° high, the branches spreading. Leaves narrowly linear, usually widely spreading, i'-iJ' long, about 1" wide, rarely with smaller ones fascicled in their axils; flowers race- mose on the branches, purple (rarely white), about 1' long and broad; pedicels shorter than or but little longer than the campanulate calyx, even in fruit; calyx-teeth triangular-lanceolate or ovate-oblong, acute, one-third to one-half the length of the tube; corolla much expanded above, villous or nearly glabrous within, pubescent with- out, the lobes ciliolate; anthers all alike, the sacs mucronulate at the base; filaments villous; cap- sule globose, 2"-3" in diameter, longer than the calyx.
