Fisch., under which name it is figured in the Botanical 
Register (Plate 666); this differs in its deeply unequally 
cordate leaves purple beneath, with white ocellate spots 
above, and a stout cartilaginous margin; the flowers too 
are quite small, and very pale pink, with five male sepals 
about a quarter of an inch long, and narrow subequal 
wings of the fruit. The white spots i in the stem of glauco- 
phylla indicate to me the possibility of its being a hybrid 
between the B. maculata and some other species. 
B. glaucophylla, grown in a basket, is a magnificent 
plant, from its long pendent branches, bright shining leaves, 
and copious clusters of highly ornamental flowers; as 
stated above it has for years been in cultivation at Kew.—
