Discussion
Plants of Ceratotheca triloba resemble those of Digitalis with their tall, herbaceous habit, secund racemes curved toward the tip, and drooping, tubular flowers. Capsules of C. triloba are four-locular and have two subapical, hornlike appendages, basal leaves sometimes three-foliolate, and corolla lobes relatively large and rounded. Plants escaped from cultivation are known from Highlands and Lake counties.
Another species, Ceratotheca sesamoides Endlicher, distinguished by smaller flowers, dense indument, and all leaves simple, is sometimes cultivated in the flora area.
Selected References
None.
