BORAGINEZ. XXXIII. Cynocrossum. 
is not a native of Portugal, but of Siberia, according to the 
Linnean herbarium. See Schrad. new. journ. bot. p. 183. If 
the plant should prove distinct, it is undoubtedly referrible to 
the genus Omphalodes.

51 C. nucósuw (Sestini, in Willd. herb. ex Roem. et Schultes,

Rugose-fruited Hound's-tongue. Pl. 
Cult. All the species are coarse growing plants, but the 
flowers of some of them are very pretty. They are of the 
most easy culture, growing in any soil or situation. They are 
generally increased by seed, which should be sown in spring in 
the open border. The greater number of the species are 
biennial, and none are perhaps truly perennial.
