The above-mentioned curvature of the iat of the Racks 
probably fuggefted to Tuunserc the poflibility of its being 
‘Linn aus’s 1x1a flexuofa, which is however a very diftiné& 
fpecies. Found at the Cape, on the Groene Kloof, and Roode 
Sand Hills, and alfo in fome fandy fpots in Swartland. Forms 
with Ix1a_ ramofa (feillaris, Thunb.) Ixra hirta, 1x10 Ro- 
- chenfis, and Ixra fetacea, a very diftin& feftion in this genus, 
agreeing in bulb and general habit of the leaves and flowers. 
Is as yet a very rare plant amongit us. Our figure was taken - 
at the garden of Mr. Alderman Hisnert. G,
