individuals at the two extremes is considerable. There are i8 plants 
having staminodes of an average length less than 70 mm. and of 
these only 5 have a red leaf margin. This ratio of red : green, Viz. 
5:13 or 1: 2.6, differs from the ratio of total reds: total greens, 
which is 79:77 or practically 1:1. For plants with an average 
staminodal length of more than 87 mm. which is that of C. glauca, 
the ratio red margin: green is 2:5—1:2.5 which likewise deviates. 
We must add that the 5 individuals all had light coloured flowers, 
viz. 3 yellow and 2 pale red.
