SoutH Mexico, valley of Mexico (Bourgeau, 1181). Hb. Kew. 
A very distinct species in its regular branching and crowded flowers. The specimens, 
however, are insufficient for a complete description, and, having apparently been 
scalded, the flowers were difficult to dissect.

These specimens are so imperfect that it is impossible to describe them satisfactorily, 
though they seem to belong to a very distinct species closely allied to the last, but 
more slender in habit, and having differently shaped leaves.
