whitish flowers in axillary clusters in summer)
=Hoarhound, Marrubium vulgare.=
21a. Corolla deeply split on the upper side and the stamens protruding;
upper lip of the calyx much shorter than the lower (5-10 dm. high;
flowers pink-purple, in terminal spikes, summer) (Wood Sage) --22.
21b. Corolla not deeply split on the upper side --23.
22a. Calyx canescent =Wood Sage, Teucrium canadense.=
22b. Calyx villous =Wood Sage, Teucrium occidentale.=
23a. Flowers in dense terminal head-like spikes, none axillary (1-5 dm.
high; flowers pink-purple or blue, in summer)
=Self-heal, Prunella vulgaris.=
23b. Some or all of the flowers in axillary clusters --24.
24a. Leaves linear, entire (1-4 dm. high; flowers purple, summer)
--25.
24b. Leaves oblong to ovate (summer) --26.
25a. Pedicels shorter than the calyx
=Summer Savory, Satureja hortensis.=

26a. Leaves 1 cm. long or less, entire (stems growing in mats, 1-3
dm. long; flowers purple, in summer)
=Wild Thyme, Thymus serpyllum.=
26b. Leaves dentate (flowers purple, summer) --27.
27a. Flowers subtended by bracts as long as the calyx (2-5 dm. high)
=Basil, Satureja vulgaris.=
27b. Flowers with minute bracts or none (1-3 dm. high)

28a. Corolla 2-lipped or nearly regular, the upper lip flattened,
not conspicuously arched over the stamens --29.
28b. Corolla conspicuously 2-lipped, the stamens ascending under
the concave upper lip --42.
29a. Flowers in dense terminal spikes; corolla 2-lipped (8-15 dm. high;
summer) --30.
29b. Flowers peduncled, 1-4 in the axils of linear leaves --25b.
29c. Flowers in many-flowered whorls, which are axillary or terminal, or
aggregated into terminal spikes or racemes --31.
30a. Corolla yellowish =Giant Hyssop, Agastache nepetoides.=
30b. Corolla purplish
=Giant Hyssop, Agastache scrophulariaefolius.=
31a. Corolla distinctly irregular, the lower lip longer than the upper
--32.
31b. Corolla almost regular, the lobes nearly uniform in size --35.
32a. Stem-leaves sessile or very nearly so (flowers blue) --33.
