I received this plant in August, 1836, from Mr. Garvie 

 of the Stratford Nursery, to whom it had been sent by Mr. 

 Murray, the Curator of the Glasgow Botanic Garden, as a 

 species of Nuttallia, raised from seeds collected by Drum- 

 mond in North America. 



It was a remarkably pretty herbaceous plant ; but un- 

 fortunately the specimens, from which the drawing was 

 taken, have been mislaid, and no description of the species 

 can be given. 



* Named after Mr. Thomas Nuttall, a writer on the Systematic Botany of 

 North America.
