Native of Brazil. Requires to be kept in the stove. 

 Introduced about three years since. The first account 

 we have of it is in the Botanical Cabinet of our friends

 produce imperfect blossoms ; for in the Cabinet the flower 

 is represented as large as that of the common Spider-wort, 

 and with nearly entire margins ; but we have never been 

 fortunate enough to meet with it in so perfect a state.
