Torenia fournieri, Lind. (T. edentula, Hort., not Benth.). Low, bushy, usually annual, becoming nearly 1 ft. high: st. 4-angled: lvs. petioled, cordate-lanceolate, 1 - 1 1/2 in. long, crenate-serrate; petiole 1/2 in. long: corolla-tube narrow, yellow; corolla-limb 2-lipped, the posterior lip not cut, pale blue, the anterior 3-lobed; lobes round-obtuse, dark purplish blue, the anterior lobe marked with a yellow blotch. Var. alba, Hort. (var. White Wings), has pure white fls. Var. compacta, Hort., is a more compact form than the type and rather larger-fld. Var. grandiflora, Hort., has somewhat larger fls. and is more free-flowering. Var. speciosa, Hort., is a showy form offered in the trade, probably very similar to var. grandiflora. CH
