252 Dr. SurTH's Account of Plants 
If the fynonym of Seguier above quoted be right, we learn. from 
thence the native country of this plant, which has long been cul- 
tivated at Cheliea 5 ; but from whence it was brought is not 
known. 
This Sempervivum is extremely different from the Sedum alfi- 
næfolium of Allioni ; but may perhaps be the Sempervivum alpinum 
Montis Baldi, foliis lenticulatis, floribus non punélatis, of Mauritius 
Hoffman, mentioned by that author in his Specimen Pedemontanum,

The native uec of this Rassias is unknown, It appears 
. to be an old inhabitant of TE we and was marked with 
"the name of Aftragalus pilofes-im- | ium. It has, 
however, no affinity to the A. bois s Pita nor does it even 
. agree with the defcription of that plant in Miller's Diétionary. 
Our plant is allied to A. hamofus; but differs from that fpecies 
in having rounder leaves, more flowers in a fpike, and efpecially 
in having ftraight, not recurved, pods, only half the length of thofe 
of A. hamofus.
