Read about Synthyris in the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture 

Synthyris (Greek, together and little door or valve, the valves of the capsule long adhering below to the short placentiferous axis). Scrophulariaceae. Hardy herbaceous perennials, glabrous or pilose: rhizome thick: lvs. radical, petioled, ovate or oblong, crenate or incisely pinnatisect: peduncles scape-like, simple: fls. racemose or spicate, blue or reddish; calyx 4-parted, segms. narrow; corolla-tube very short or almost none, subrotate-campanulate, 4-lobed or none; stamens 2: caps. compressed, obtuse or emarginate, 2-grooved.— About 15 species, natives of W. N. Amer. Synthyris is nearly related to Wulfenia of S. E. Eu. and the Himalayas, but the anther-cells are not confluent and the seeds are discoidal. In their native region they are summer-blooming plants with small purplish or flesh-colored spikes or racemes. Border plants. CH
