American Germander

Description:

The flowers of American Germander are irregular, with a two-lipped (bilabiate) corolla which is a pinkish-tinged white with pink to purple spotted markings on the lower lip. The upper lip are the two upright lobes with the tips nearly touching in this photo; the lower lip consists of the two small spreading lateral lobes and the huge hanging lowest lobe. The stamens and pistil are exserted from the upper lip.
