(b) Subsp. secundiflora (Boiss. & Spruner) Breistr. , Mém. Soc. Bot. Fr. 1952: 84 (1952):

Eglandular. Siliqua glabrous. • S. Balkan peninsula. (3-14). H. matronalis group. Biennial or perennial 40-120 cm; hairs branched, unbranched and sometimes glandular. Pedicels 5-20 mm in fruit, about equalling the calyx in flower. Calyx 5-8(-10) mm; petals 14-25 mm, white or purple; limb 3-7 mm wide, oblong to obovate. Siliqua 25-100 x 1-5-3 mm; valves rounded; style 1-5-2-5 mm. This group contains a number of taxa which are generally not very difficult to identify but whose status is often unclear. Most of them differ from each other in only 1 or 2 characters, which, in other groups, are often considered to be o f doubtful taxonomic value (e.g. flower-colour, type of indumentum, etc.).
