considerably in the breadth of the foliage, and in the size cf the 

 flowers (which with us are in perfection in the winter months), 

 and in the colour of the latter; for, whereas the limb of the 

 corolla is dull lilac in the specimen figured in the ' Botanical 

 Register/ here it is rather a bright pink. The specific name 

 crenulatum is hardly characteristic of the leaves. 



Descr. A moderately-sized glabrous shrub, slightly branched 

 and herbaceous upwards. Leaves rather long-petioled or ovate, 

 sometimes cordate at the base, or lanceolate, acuminate, penni- 

 veined, generally quite entire at the margin. Bacemes terminal, 

 aggregated, three to four inches to a span long, with or without a 

 pair of floral leaves near the base. Pedicels very short, small, 

 approximate or remote, subtended by one or two small bracts. 

 Calyx small, erect, quinquefid, with broad subulate segments. 

 Corollas in our plant an inch and a half to an inch and three- 

 quarters long, infundibuliform, with a very slender, almost fili- 

 form, white tube, dilated at t\\Qfauz, and there curved, so that the 

 limb is oblique, five-cleft, rose-colour, white in the mouth; stamens 

 two, or four and didynanious, exserted ; anthers apparently all 

 perfect. Ovary oval. Style very slender, filiform, as long as 

 the tube.
