Erect perennial, 30-90 cm, very variable. Stems stout or slender, paniculate or simple, densely foliose. Median leaves ovate, lanceolate or linear, 30-60 x1-25 mm, very acute or pungent, not amplexicaul, 1-5-nerved, glaucous, thick. Racemes very dense, 5-12 cm in flower. Bracts lanceolate, usually longer than pedicels, often deflexed. Pedicels 1-2 mm in flower, slender. Calyx lobes 2-4 mm, ovate, oblong or lanceolate, obtuse to acute, membranous-margined, glabrous, pubescent, tomentellous, villous or ciliolate, eglandular or rarely glandular. Corolla bright or sometimes dirty yellow, with or without violet or brown veins, 8-13 mm, bilabiate to -y-way; spur 5-10 mm, directed downwards, straight or ± incurved. Capsule 4-6 mm, often ± puberulent above, longer than calyx. Seeds winged, 2-2.5 mm, disc minutely tuberculate. Fl. 7-8.
