Altogether a lefs plant than the variety |3 ; having narrower 

 leaves, which are ftraighter at the fides ; the raceme is alfo 

 ihorter and fewer-flowered. The fame plant produces fomc- 

 times a Ample, at others a corymbofely branched flower-ftem. 

 We have never feen the leaves of (3 affume a liver-coloured tint, 

 which we have always obferved thofe of a to do when placed in 

 the open air during the fummer. Our drawing was made from a 

 plant that flowered laft year in Mr. Haworth's grcenhoufe,
