Poparyria /upinoides, though introduced to this wre! 
by the Duke of NorruumBerLanp as early as 1775, is ftill 
very rare. Mr. Loppices, to whom we are indebted for the 
plant from which our drawing was taken, has been in poffeffion 
of it feveral years, having raifed it from feeds procured from 
iberia, but was never fo fortunate as to flower it till June 
1810, and then but imperfe€ily ; for, when in perfeétion, it 
as a long verticillate fpike. Some of Patxas’s {pecimens, 
Owever, in the poffeffion of A. B. Lamaert, Efq. have, like 
Our drawing, a fingle whorl of flowers only. 
The leaves and ftipules are covered with a foft filky pu- 
befcence: the former, in our plant, were moftly imperfect, 
Confifting of a fingle feffile leaflet, befides the leaf-like ftipules : 
When perfe@, the leaf is ternate, with a footftalk.
