Not so densely tomentose as var. semidigyna, but covered with short closely appressed hairs of a paler colour, changing from brown into grey; especially the stems making the impression of being farinose. Finer nervation of the sometimes narrower leaves often much more visible by the absence of a dense haircloth. Sepals often somewhat shorter than in var. semidigyna, less acuminate, often with more distinct nerves. Corolla longer, 4½-5 cm.
In thickets on the beach and on rocks, in marshy but also in very dry localities, between sea-level and 75 m.
