mountainous regions. Leaves are of opposite phyllotaxis, in the

the stems to some extent. Pale glands exist on the leaf surfaces,
but no dark ones do. The stems branch on the tops and set yellow
one-day flowers on the branch tips. The flower is 5-petaled, each
4-6cm in length; sepals are 6 in number, each different in size,
having many pale glands between veins. Bloom time: July-August. |
