Plants in every Stove, more especially as they succeed under 
shade of taller Plants. Two species of this Genus, which I a ened 
to distinguish in the 2nd volume of Linnean Transactions, have been 
e No. 
Flowers without even a rudiment of any Pedicel, Tube of Corolla 
thickly pen Segments of the Limb equally concave, with one or 
teeth in its Crown between each Filament; and being certainly 
rire s Plant, I now wish to restore to it Linnf’s name of Caribea ; 
the other Species Fragrans, figured in the Botanical Magazine No. 
1467, has petiolated Leaves but narrower than in Speciosa, Flowers 
with exceedingly short Pedicels, Tube of Corolla only 6-sulcated, its 
alternate Petals much more concave, and its Crown often 1—2-toothed 
between each Filament, but not always, being sometimes emarginated 
without any tooth. Hymenocallis Tubiflora of the Ho rticultural 
Transactions grows wild in Guiana, from whence it was bro ught in 
. attenuated at the top as to almost cuspidated, its Crown very 
sh — ntire without teeth. B uscript note of Dr. 
petibus in his copy of Trew’s Pine; Selec tw, it appears that 
Hymbnocillie Littoralis was cultivated by his father, the celebrated 
Botanist at North Bierly in Yorkshire, so long ago as 1742; 
that THomas Hopeson who had worked as a labourer in his garden, 
but was pressed for a sailor, and sent home wounded from the siege 
of Carthagena, brought back Bulbs with him; it grows wild there in 
the sandy shores, and if indulged with a large pot and a little salt 
water in our Stoves, produces a a truly magnificent bunch of Flowers.
