--><span class="statement" id="st-undefined" data-properties=""><b>Plants </b>perennial; taproot stout; caudex much-branched, woody, producing many erect-to-straggling, little-branched flowering shoots. <b>Stems</b> erect, 5–40 cm, softly pubescent to scabrous, eglandular or viscid-glandular, especially distally, very rarely glabrous, with several pairs of leaves equaling or shorter than internodes. <b>Leaves</b> sessile, or basal with short pseudopetiole; blade linear to lanceolate or broadly ovate, base round to cuneate, apex acute to shortly acuminate, puberulent on both surfaces, sometimes glandular. <b>Inflorescences</b> usually with single dichotomy, rarely double, open, bracteate, branches often elongate, flowers 1 per node; bracts foliaceous. <b>Pedicels</b> sharply reflexed at base, especially after anthesis, equaling calyx. <b>Flowers</b> nodding; calyx obscurely 10-veined, broadly campanulate, lobed, 6–8 mm, enlarging to 13–16 mm in fruit, herbaceous, usually with short, dense pubescence throughout, often glandular-viscid, veins green, rarely purplish tinged, conspicuous pale commissures absent; lobes ovate-triangular, 1/2 to equaling tube, herbaceous; petals creamy white, often greenish abaxially, rarely pink tinged to dusky pink (<i></i>subsp.<i> campanulata</i>), clawed, to 2 times calyx, claw villose, limb deeply divided and fan-shaped with many narrow, linear lobes, lobes rapidly curling, margins deeply divided or erose, appendages 2–4, to 2 mm; stamens exserted; filaments hairy at base; styles 3, to 2 times calyx. <b>Capsules</b> ovoid, ca. equaling calyx and often splitting it, opening by 6 broadly triangular teeth; carpophore 1–2.5 mm. <b>Seeds</b> brown, reniform, 2–2.5 mm broad, coarsely and ± evenly papillate; papillae ca. as long as broad.</span><!--
