Description

Leptosiphon liniflorus is an annual herb producing a thin stem 10–50 centimetres (3.9–19.7 in) tall. The leaves are divided into needle-like linear lobes each up to 3 cm (1.2 in) in length.

The inflorescence is an open array of funnel-shaped, with purple-veined white flowers having corolla lobes each up to 1 centimetre (0.39 in) long. The bloom period is April to June.

gollark: No, I mean you can't run it on the client side in a web application. You can run Python programs if you download them, but not "on a webpage".
