or nearly sagittate at the base. It belongs to the section in 
which the calyx is divided into ten segments, five of which 
are reflexed, but the reflexed segments in this species are very 
minute, giving the appearance of only five arrow-shaped | 
segments. ‘The corolla is marked with five hairy lines. The 
valvular bases of the filaments are nearly orbicular and cili- 
ated. Germen trilocular. Style longer than the stamens, 
and, as frequently happens in this genus, so covered with the 
pollen that its divisions are not observable, but the stigmas 
afterwards separate into three, and finally roll back. 
Flowers in June and July. Our drawing was taken from 
a plant communicated by Mr. Jenxins, Nurseryman, in the 
New-Road, who raised it from seeds sent from Moscow, by | 
Dr. Fiscuer, to Mr. Hunneman.
