Ancnusa undulata is a hardy perennial ; native of Spain 
and Portugal. It was cultivated at Chelsea by Paruip Miter 
in 1756, but has not probably been often seen in our collections 
from that time till very lately, when it has again become an 
inhabitant of the same Botanic garden, where it was raised 
from seeds received from Mr. Orro of the Berlin garden.
