1a. Leaf blades abaxially whitened by dense, minute, white hairs; calyx minutely pubescent; petioles of middle leaves 10–15 (–20) mm long
-

-
2a. Calyx lobes 1–1.5 mm long, narrow-ovate; corolla green-yellow; inflorescence 10–15 mm thick; floral bracts broad-ovate and tipped by a short, acuminate point; stems glabrous or minutely pubescent on middle internodes; leaf blades pubescent across the surface abaxially
-
2b. Calyx lobes 2–2.5 mm long, narrow-triangular; corolla purple; inflorescence 15–20 mm thick; floral bracts round-ovate and tipped by an elongate, caudate-acuminate point; stems with some longer hairs on the middle internodes; leaf blades pubescent mainly on the major veins abaxially
