 | Echium fastuosum, Ait., not Jacq. This has darker blue fls. in a dense spike and perhaps less hoary foliage than E. candicans, the protruding filaments nearly white (said by some to be white in E. candicans). Coast, Canaries. R.H. 1876:10. Gn. 10:546. G.C. III. 33:328. G.W. 15, p. 356. — E. fastuosum. has dark blue, 5-lobed fls. about ! ...in. across, in spikes 6 in. long and 2 in. wide, perhaps as many as 200 fls. in a spike. Great masses of stamens are thrust out and add to the interest, and the young fl.-buds look like pink 5-pointed stars.
