Stems 10–70 (–100) cm, proximally glandular-hairy and, sometimes, eglandular-hairy. Inflorescences: branches with 1 leaf at each proximal node. Flowers: calyx adaxial lobe 3.5–5.5 mm; corolla white to light purple, often with darker veins, 8–15 mm, adaxial lip 2–5.5 mm.
Phenology: Flowering Jun–Sep.
Habitat: Gravelly lower slopes, disturbed areas, often on serpentine.
