to us not unpleafant. The leaves do not lie flat on the ground 

 as thofe of many of the fpecies do ; but are upright and diva- 

 ricately patent ; pedicles little longer than the corolla, about 

 equal to the braBes, which are fomewhat coloured and concave; 

 corolla ftellately patent and parted almoft to the bafe ; filaments 

 fhorter than corolla, connate, but only for a very little diftance, 

 divergent, fomewhat incurved; both filaments and corolla 

 are at firft white, but turn green in time. Germen ovate- 

 faftigiate ; ftyle curved. A common greenhoufe plant, of 

 moft eafy culture.
