the Englifh name of /win-flowered. The fynonym from Mot 
Rison, applied to Ruy/chiana by Linnaus and Ge in, has 
in the Hortus Kewenfis been transferred to the fpecies here 
figured, upon which authority our plant is faid to have been cul- 
tivated by Bosart before the year 1699; but Morison’s 
defcription and figure appears to us rather to belong to Dra- 
cocEePHALUM Ruy/chiana, where it is retained by WiL.pE- 
now, and if fo, the defcription of DracocrPHALUM pere- 
grinum in Martyn’s Mitter’s Ditionary, copied from 
Morison, does not belong to our plant, nor does it at all 
agree with thofe of Gmgextn and Zinn: MI ver may then 
be confidered as having firft cultivated it in the Botanic 
Garden at Chelfea, about the year 1758. Flowers in July and 
Auguft, Is a hardy perennial, and propagated by feeds or 
parting its roots, 
Our drawing was taken laft fummer at Mr. SatiszuRY’s 
Botanic Garden, Brompton. :
