By Linnaeus, if he really meant the fame plant, this was 

 thought to be a variety of Crinum americanum given above, 

 No. 1034; by his fon it has been feparated into a diftinft fpecies, 

 and fo continued from his manufcript in the Hort us Kewenfis, 

 But we doubt if Linn^us had this plant in view. 



A native of Spanifh America. Requires to be kept in the 

 hothoufe. Differs chiefly from americanum in the colour of 

 the bloom and the cartilaginous toothed edging of the 

 leaves. Our drawing was made from a plant in the collection, 

 of Meffrs. Whitley and Brame of Old-Brompton. 



Blooms at various feafons. G,
