Scutellaria wrightii
Common Name: Shrubby skull-cap, bushy skull-cap
Perennial, native to Texas and Oklahoma.
Scutellaria gets the name "skullcap" because the calyces have a skullcap-like protrusion (called a scutellum, hence the genus name). | The leaves are opposite, and the flowers arise from the leaf axils. The flowers are rotated such that they both face the same dirrection. |
