Summary

Ourisia coccinea is a species of flowering plant in the family Plantaginaceae that is endemic to mountainous habitats of the Andes of southern Chile and Argentina. Christiaan Hendrik Persoon described O. coccinea in 1806. Plants of this species of South American foxglove are perennial, hairy, rosette herbs with crenate leaves. There can be up to 30 flowers on a long, erect raceme, and each flower has a regular calyx, and a long, bilabiate, tubular-funnelform, red corolla with two exserted and two included stamens. The calyx is hairy with a mix of glandular and non-glandular hairs, and the corolla is usually hairless or with some glandular hairs on the outside. There are two allopatric subspecies that can be distinguished by the edges and hairs of the leaves, and by the hairs on the pedicel. It is often used as an ornamental plant....read more on Wikipedia.
