 ' Pax. Mag. of Bot.,iv. p. 147. ; C. bicolor Hort. — This is a very beauti- 

 ful variety. The sepals are cream-coloured suffused with violet spots, 

 so as to give the plant what is termed by florists a dark eye. The leaves 

 and branches are more hairy, and the flowers much larger than those 

 of the species. It is a native of Japan, whence it was brought to Europe 

 by Dr. Van Sieboldt ; and Messrs. Low and Co. of the Clapton 

 Nursery introduced it into England from Belgium in 1836. (See 

 Gard, Mag., vol. xiii. p. 430.)"

 ternate ; segments ovate-acute, entire. 

 Peduncles 1-flowered ; sepals 6 — 8, oblong,

 and profuse-blooming plant, with large 

 violet-coloured flowers, and deep purple 

 stamens. Dr. Lindley observes that it is 

 nearly related to C. florida, from which it 

 differs not only in the colour, delicacy, and 

 transparency of its blossoms, but also in its 

 leaves being only once ternate, and in the 

 sepals not touching and overlapping each 

 other at the edges. A native of Japan.

 boldt, whence it was sent to England to 

 Messrs. Loddiges, in 1836."
