, The true T. jasminoides is a Chinese plant and is distinct from the Japanese T. 
p divaricatum K. Schumann, with which it has been united by previous authors. 
» The latter may be distinguished at once even from glabrous forms of T. jasminoides 
* by the exserted stamens and by the longer-pointed flower-buds. Most of the cul- 
tivated plants of T. jasminoides and apparently also Lindley's type are much more 
glabrous than the wild forms mentioned above, but there is in the herbarium of 
the Arnold Arboretum a specimen from the Villa Thuret at Antibes, France, which 
shows the same pubescence on the inflorescence, the sepals and on the under sur- 
faces of the leaves that we find in the Chinese specimens. Even the apparently 
wholly glabrous cultivated plants are more or less sparsely hairy on the under 
surface of the leaves, but the mouth of the corolla is mostly without any hairs. 
The stamens are distinctly included, and the sepals are spreading or reflexed and 
comparatively longer than those of T. cathayanum. The pubescence of the branch- 
lets is variable and we find in almost every species quite glabrous and rather 
pubescent forms. See also under T. divaricatum Kanitz p. 337.
