This plant, although it has been long considered as only a 

 variety of the preceding species, nevertheless affords sufficient 

 marks to keep it distinct ; and these characters are always con- 

 stant when raised from seed. It is not, as some have supposed, 

 a garden hybrid or variety. It was found wild in Siberia both 

 by Dr. Amman and the celebrated Pallas, in whose Herbarium, 

 now in the possession of A. B. Lambert, Esq., there are several 

 native specimens.
