| Notes: | Label source: This consists of the flowers and unilateral flower-spikes of Hyptis pectinata Poit., an undershrub, growing 6 or 7 feet high. The dried florets, which are not much larger than those of Santonica, have a very bitter slightly aromatic taste r, esembling that of white horehound, for which it might perhaps form a substitute in Madagascar. | ||||
