Descriptions

Habit
Shrub 80-150 cm tall
Key characteristics
This species is similar to C, georgiana (especially the northern populations) and differ by having a different leaf indumentum; a key character of C. rubiginosa is the rust colour indumentum on the underside of the leaf. Northern populations often grow in open sunny places forming compact bushes to about 60 cms tall with a poorly formed inflorescence and leaves with a wide-winged petiole and joined across the nodes, similar to C. georgiana . In contrast, the plants of the southern populations develop to almost 1.5 m tall laxly branched bushes with leaves that have only small-winged petioles (Ehrhart, 2005)
Notes
Calceolaria rubiginosa can form hybrids with C. angustifolia, C. ascendens, C. integrifolia and C. morisii.
