Comm. hort. 2. p. 83. t. 42. Corolla deep yellow. It is the 
great disproportion in length of the 5 divisions of the corolla of 
this species that was the origin of the generic name. 
Hand-flower Manulea. Fi. June, Aug. Clt. 
1 foot. 
24 M. PusrLLA (E. Meyer, mss. ex Benth. 1. c.) leaves nearly 
radical, obovate, or oblong, a little toothed; peduncles nume- 
rous, scape-formed, erectish ; racemes nearly simple; tube of 
corolla hardly exserted ; segments of the limb scarcely unequal, 
rather shorter than the tube. 4. G. Native of South Africa, 
at Zilverfontein in Namaqualand. Very nearly allied to M. 
cheiránthus, but much smaller, and with very much smaller 
flowers. 
Small Manulea. Pl. 1 to 4 foot. ? 
25 M. Gariepr'na (Benth. |. c.) leaves nearly radical, ovate, 
obovate, or oblong; peduncles scape-formed, erect, a little 
branched ; racemes compound, many-flowered ; tube of corolla 
more than twice the length of the calyx ; segments of the limb 
unequal. 4.? G. Native of South Africa, on the plains of the 
Gariep, in Namaqualand. This species also comes near M. 
cheiránthus, but differs in the flowers. In both this and the 
preceding species the lower segments of the corolla are fre- 
quently, and sometimes perhaps all of them, obtuse, so as to 
connect the present section with the two first, ex Benth.

has written a monograph on the present tribe, has not been able 
to refer to any of the above.

Cult. These are pretty little alpine plants, and are, therefore, 
very desirable for the decoration of rockwork or old walls, for 
which purposes no plants can be better fitted, as they grow in 
close tufts, and produce their numerous purple blossoms during 
most of the summer months. They are either propagated by 
division or by seeds; but they succeed best when allowed to 
scatter their seeds. 
Tribe VII. 
BUDDLIE‘ (this tribe only contains the genus Bud- 
dléa.) D. Don. in edinb. phil. journ. vol. 19. July, Oct. 
1835. Calyx campanulate, 5-toothed. Corolla tubular; limb 
4-5-cleft, equal, spreading. Stamens 4-5, nearly equal, in- 
closed ; anthers composed of 2 parallel, distinct cells. Stigma 
clavate, 2-lobed. Capsule crustaceous ; dissepiment constituted 
from the inflexed edges of the valves, inserted in the thick 
spongy placenta. Seeds angular, scobiform ; testa loose, mem- 
branous. Albumen fleshy. Embryo almost the length of the 
seeds ; cotyledons oblong, compressed ; radical very short.— 
Shrubs with usually quadrangular branches. Leaves opposite, 
reticulately-veined. Flowers terminal, capitate, spicate, or pani- 
cled, usually orange-coloured. This tribe is analogous in habit 
to many Verbenacee.
