Creek, at the foot of steep and rocky banks, near the watér. Shrubs thiree to four — 
high, flowering at the end of May. — A beautiful and very distinct species, allied to B.

of B. vulgaris: the conspicuous calyculate bractlets tinged with red or pink. Branches

pinnatifidis pube brevi cinerea undique tectis et (nervis marginibusque presertim) seto- 
sissimis ; calyce aculeato ; corolla alba maxima; capsula cylindrica (2-unciali) dcutata 
_ spinis validis setisque horrida. — Low, sandy places around Santa Fé; the stems 1 to - 
2 feet high, growing socially in great numbers; June, July. (Also on the Upper Arkan- : 
‘ 
* i sas, &c., Fremont, Wislizenus.) —'The flower is 3 or 4 inches in diameter, and accords 
with Dr. Lindley’s figure of A. grandiflora, excepting the prickly calyx. That is a gla- 
. brous plant, while ours is not only densely setose, but is hoary throughout with a short 
and close hirsute pubescence. The pod is covered with very strong spines, of which the 
larger are often branched, and also with smaller prickles and’a —- and bristly pubes- 
cence. A. Mexicana was also collected, in two forms.
