Detpuinium vimineum. Don, in Sw. Brit. Fl. Gard. t. 374. 
Raised from seeds sent to the Glasgow Botanic Garden 
from Velasco, in Texas, by the late Mr. Drummonp. The 
same plant has been figured by Mr. Don, with the lower 
leaves smaller and broader: and I follow that Botanist in 
making it a new species ; at the same time, I am far from 
certain that it is not a state of D. azwreum, also found in 
Texas by Mr. Drummonp,) with less divided leaves than 
usual. It is a handsome hardy perennial, flowering in July 
and August. 
Descr. Stem slightly branched, two to three feet high, 
downy. Leaves all petiolate, tripartite, the segments linear- 
cuneate, entire or deeply and unequally bifid, upper oe
