Description
It is an annual herb producing a slender, hairy green stem up to about 35 centimeters tall. The lance-shaped leaves are up to 5 centimeters long. The inflorescence is a dense cylindrical spike of wide netted bracts with pinkish tips. The flowers just barely emerge from between the bracts. Each flower is about a centimeter long, its narrow, hooked, beaklike upper lip pink and its expanded, pouched lower lip yellowish.

gollark: Oooo, or muoctahedrons.
gollark: osmarksßcities™ will be built as mu-cubes.
