Stem softly pilosulous with hairs up to 1 mm. long; leaves hastate<br />
or subhastate (midnerve: lateral nerves, 5:3-4; middle lobe oblonglanceolate,<br />
acuminate, the lateral lobes ovate-lanceolate, usually<br />
bilobate, acute or subacute), crenulate, pilosulous; bracts 3 to 3.5 cm.<br />
long at post-anthesis, the ultimate segments not closely interwoven;<br />

This and two other varieties in Mexico and Central America<br />
often have the basal lobes bilobate, so that the leaves appear 5-lobed.<br />
The pubescence of this variety is rather similar to that of var. gossypifolia,<br />
and the large, purplish flowers are suggestive of certain other<br />
varieties in this region.<br />
