|discussion=<p>Variety texanum can be distinguished from other members of the genus in most of its range by its yellow flowers, distinct styles, and conspicuously glandular-toothed inner sepals. Its capsules also tend to persist longer than those of <i>L. striatum</i> and <i>L. virginianum</i>, in which the capsules shatter early.</p>
