Neither have I feen this living. The flowers feem to be white,

 filky like the calyx.

This fpecies varies with fmooth and downy leaves, and the calyx 

 is fometimes merely filky, fometimes clothed with long and thick 

 projecting down. Some of its varieties are in the gardens, eipe- 

 cially what I take to be the /3 of Hart. Kew. which has fmall 

 downy twitted leaves, with a little recurved point, and is commonly 

 called Philadelphus pubefcens. It may be a diftincr. fpecies. 



5. L. parvifolium, foliis obovatis enerviis, ramulis calycibufque 



pilofis: dentibus membranaceis coloratis. 



Of this I have only one fpecimen, nor have I feen it alive ; but 

 it is very diftincl:. 



6. L. arachnotdeum^ foliis fubulatis pungentibus, ramulis hirtis, 



calycibus dentibufque viliofis. 

 L. arachnoides. Gartn. v. I. 175. t. 35. 



I have but a fmgle fpecimen of this fpecies, which agrees well 

 with Gartner's figure and original fpecimen at Sir Jofeph Banks's. 



7. L. junlperlnum^ foliis lineari-lanceolatis pungentibus, ramu-
