This very distinct species is peculiar in having the corolla and androecuim 

 not quite isomerous with the calyx. Baillon (Bull. Soc. Linn. Paris, ii. 8D9) 

 notes this also of a species he calls C. ? j^t/riformey Avhich, however, from the 



description he gives^ certainly differs in foliage as well as in flower 



from 



the plant under notice.
