Flowers small, pale blue. I insert this plant on the 
authority of Exotic Botany ; butat the same time I 
doubt very much of its being a native of North Ameri- 
ca, and more strongly suspect it to come from Mexico.

P. suffruticosa. Hortul, : 
In South Carolina. Fraser. 4. Aug.—Oct. v.v. in 
Hortis. Near two feet high; flowers of a brilliant 
purple, which is deeper thau in any other species. This 
species approaches near to P. Carolina ; but besides its 
other characters it distinguishes itself very easily by 
flowering later and longer than that species,
