Description
Annual, slender taprooted herb.
Opposite, sessile, palmately lobed leaves, leaf segments linear-elongate.[2]The leaves of the inflorescence larger and often more lobed than the cauline leaves.[3]
Inflorescence dense, bracteate heads, flowers subsessile, corolla tube 12-30 mm, flowers pink to white, generally bicolored. Calyx more or less glabrous, sometimes scarcely hispid on outer surface or with marginal cilia.[2]
Fruits are 3-chambered capsules, bearing several seeds per capsule.[3]
From Greek lepto, narrow, siphon, tube, for shape of corolla tube.[2]
Bloom Period
April- June[4]
