reen, with a rather long and almost straight tube: limb

the margins thickened. Stamens inserted just above the 
tube, within the faux. Filaments short, with a small blunt

Received at the Glasgow Botanic Garden from the late 
Baron de Suack, as a native of Trinidad. It seems en- 
tirely to agree with the C. alaternoides of Dr. Wmu1AM 
Hamirron, in the work above quoted, which is, I believe, 
the only one in which it has been described. 7 
It requires the heat of the stove, and in that situation, it 
flowers very early in the spring.
