1-3-flowered. Flowers cream-coloured, twice the size of those 
of S. sediotdes. Easily distinguished from S. sedioides in the 
stems and leaves being densely beset with glandular hairs, and 
in the petals being obovate, retuse, and twice the length of the 
calyx.

113 S. pepre’ssa (Sternb. rev. sax. 42. t. ll. a. f. 5.) stem 
roughish, few-flowered, furnished with 2 leaves, one of which 
is a little stem-clasping ; leaves spatulate, entire, and cuneately

campanulate; calycine lobes triangular, broad. 2/.H. Native

running into the petiole at the base, and in the lower surface 
of the leaves being roughish from short stiffish hairs, not pilose. 
Perhaps the same as S. androsacea p, tridentata.
