grower, glabrous and somewhat glaucous: lvs. divided nearly to the
petiole into 5 lanceolate or lance-elliptic entire sharp-pointed
segms. of which the 2 lower ones are sometimes again lobed: fl. 3-4
in. across, slightly fragrant, greenish white, the sepals tipped with
a short point, the rays of the corona in 2 series, blue at the tip,
white in the middle and purple at the base, the styles light purple.
