Notes
Anthers long, wooly-hairy. Plants form mats with flowering stems erect or ascending. Leaves, glabrous, varied from widely ovate (not much longer than wide) with rounded tips, sometimes even notched at the tip, to broadly lanceolate on the flowering stem. Most had small teeth. Staminode shorter than stamens, yellow-bearded nearly entire length, longer at tip. Plant was in a very tricky spot so I couldn't photograph the whole thing.
