Verbascum chaixii, Vill. Biennial, usually about 3 ft. high, whitish tomentose: st. somewhat angled above: lvs. ovate to oblong, green or tomentose below, crenate; lower 3-6 in. long, petioled, base cuneate, more or less crenate or rather incised; upper lvs. sessile, base rotundate: racemes paniculate, fascicled and laxly several-fld.: fls. yellow; calyx-segms. lanceolate-subulate; corolla-lobes nearly rotund, filaments purple-woolly. S. Eu. Gn. 27, p. 172; 78, p. 435. Var. album, Hort., is a white-fld. form.—This species is said to reach a height of 10 ft. and to act like a true perennial in warm soils. V. orientale, Bieb., is considered the same by some authorities; apparently not in cult. The vars. semi- lanatum, Hort., and Freynianum, Hort., are really hybrids.
