except at the tips, where they are yellow, and rolled back- 

 ward ; in G. lepida they are all equal, of one uniform, pale 

 yellowish hue, and not turned back at the point. In G. ru- 

 hicunda, the stigma is a very pale lilac, almost white, in 

 G. lepida it is a rich dark purple; the seeds too of the former 

 are far more slender than those of the latter species. 



A hardy annual.
