Det. by Carl Epling, 1931.
Stachys Chamissonis Benth. Linnaea 6: 8o. 1831.
No. 8563, collected May 23, about two miles beyond San
Mateo, San Mateo county, elevation 100 feet, on the Half Moon
Bay road, growing in rich and damp, partly shaded places along
the creek. It is a large plant with deep pink flowers. The de-
termination is somewhat doubtful, as the pubescence on the
angles of the stem is hardly made up of “rigid downcurved
prickle-like hairs,” the leaves are ovate-lanceolate, acute, not
“ovate, obtuse,” and the whorls are close, not “distant.” 'it has
somewhat the appearance of S. californica.
