Roots of both the varieties of this very rare and dis- 
tinct species of Amaryllis were received, by the Horticultural 
Society, from Francis Place, Esq. in 1822; the red variety, 
which was the only one previously known, under the name 
of Pelegrino; the pale citron variety, which is quite new, 
under the name of Pelegrino var. Our drawing of the red 
kind was made in Mr. Lee's Nursery in July last; that of 
the pale kind at the same time in the Chiswick Garden, 
in which collection alone we believe it at present exists. 
A very delicate species ; not, however, requiring more 
than protection from frost, and therefore capable of being 
preserved in a good dry frame, when not in a state of 
growth. 
The Bulbs are ovate, small, with dark brown integu- 
ments. The Leaves are nearly erect, longer than the scape, 
linear, obtuse, channelled, somewhat glaucous. Flower
