Tuttletown, Tuolumne Co.
----------

No. 6435. Collinsia tinctoria Hartw. Corolla white with purple markings (lines and dots). Whorls (largest) with 8 or 9 or 11 flowers! Flowers deflexed a little below the horizontal. The distention on upper side of tube (properly throat) makes a very sharp angle on lower side. It is indeed like a broad spur on upper side! Stamens 3 long, of approximately equal length, the fourth shorter. -- This is not correct. At first 2 long, 2 shorter, the 2 shorter elongate unequally in point of time but become of equal length eventually and equalling the other 2 stamens. Stigma one, minute, smaller in diameter than the style.
