at the basal portions; limbs without setting flowers deliver

rosette way. On the other hand, stems that expect flowers to branch
well and grow to approximately 25cm tall, with leaves of an
oblong-like, spatulate shape. Flower heads measure 3.5-4cm in
diameter, with ligulate corollas that are blue-purple. Bloom time:
