high. Leaves 10-12 inches long or more, decompound, with patent and sub-distant 
segments. Peduncles 8-10 inches long, villous, Bracts lanceolate, hairy. I have 
only seen cultivated specimens of this plant. 
55. P. apiifolium (Jacq. f. Eccl. 1. t. 27); caudex thick and fleshy, 
glabrous ; flowering branches herbaceous, slender, hairy, with long in- 
ternodes ; leaves pinnati-partite, the pihne petiolate, pinnatifido-pinnate, 
the segments cuneate, flat, laciniate, glabrows and glaucous ; stipules 
small, triangular ; peduncles simple ; flowers sub-sessile, the calyx tube 
3-4 times longer than the obtuse, reflexed segments ; petals obovate, 
reflexed, dark, witha pale border. DC, Prod. 1. p. 662. 
Has. Cultivated in Europe, 1809. 
Only known to me from Jacquin’s figure and description, from which together I 
have drawn up the above diagnosis. Though placed by De Candolle widely a) 
from P. multiradiatum, it appears to me to be nearly allied, I cannot credit Jac- 
quin’s description of the stamens and calyx tube. 
56. P. quinquevulnerum (Willd. ! Enum. 703); suffruticose, spar- 
ingly branched ; leaves bi-pinnatifid, hairy and rough, the segments linear, 
unequally cut and toothed ; stipules broadly cordate, mucronate; calyx 
tubes setulous, equalling the pedicels, segments oblong, blunt ; petals 
obovate, velvetty, purple, with a pale edge. DC. Prod. 1. p. 664. Andr.
