Obs. — Hermione Jforibunda Narciss. Monog. ed. 2. 

 p. 17. was a Dutch specimen given me by Mr. Sabine, 

 from the Chiswick Garden, by the name of" The Grand 

 Monarque," and is well preserved in my Herbarium, 

 with 16 flowers in one spathe. And I have this year seen 

 it from Holland, in Mr. Dennis's fine collection in his 

 Nursery in the King's Road, Chelsea, also with 16 

 flowers on one scape, but named " The Grand Primo 

 Citroniere," which I am assured is its proper florist's 

 name. It has perhaps the broadest leaves of all the 

 genus, measuring when adult, in my garden, 2^ feet 

 long, and 1^ inch broad, on a plant which had only 

 14 flowers in one spathe. Mr. Dennis had likewise 

 The Grand Monarque from Holland ; and he has seen 

 18 flowers on its scape, but their laciniajare far more 

 acute, and may be characterized in the following 

 manner : 

 acuminata. H. (The acute-flowered Nosegay) 8 — 18-flora: 

 coroUcB magnae laciniis albis sagpc productim ovato- 

 acuminatis subreflexo-incurvulis, corona ampla citrina 

 suberecta integra 3 — 4-plolon gioribus. 



The Grand Monarque, Hortulanorum. 



Obs. Ca?tera cum H.Jloribundd Nob. (The Grand 

 Primo Citroniere of the Dutch) concordat, sed saepius, 

 non semper, minor foliis minoribus floribus saepe pau- 

 cioribus.
