Hyptis brevipes

Hyptis brevipes is an annual plant in the Lamiaceae family, characterized by its square stem and opposite, narrowly ovate or lanceolate leaves that are coarsely hairy on both surfaces. It can grow up to 1 m tall and typically has densely hairy stems, though some individuals may have less hair. The inflorescence is a dense raceme, nearly globose in shape, up to 14 mm in diameter, and borne on a 1 cm long peduncle in the axils of upper leaves. The corolla is white, five-lobed, and about 5 mm long, while the calyx is 4 mm long with five narrow, finely barbed lobes. The seeds are ovoid, up to 1 mm long, dark brown to black, with a visible scar and faint striations.
