especially about Antequcra and Cordova, flowering in 

 January and February. 



It produces its blossoms in this country a little later; 

 my specimens were obligingly communicated by the Honour- 

 able W. F. Strangways, from the garden of the Dowager 

 Countess of Ilchester, at Aljbotsbury in Dorsetshire, where 

 the plant was growing in a terrace border, with no more pro- 

 tection than a mat-screen would afford. Its flowers have a 

 pleasant smell, between that of the Hyacinth and the Elder.
