The fifth has a round branched stem, five feet high, villose at top, 

 reddish: tlie leaves soft, whitish, tomentose, unequally serrate; the 

 lower subcord ale-hastate, five-angled; the upper ovate, three-cusped, 

 the middle lobe narrowed, acute, oblong: the stipules ovate-lanceo- 

 late, villose: the flowers on short peduncles, axillary, solitary, very 

 seldom two together; terminating ones in a spike: the outer calyx 

 ovate, with roundish-acute segments; inner larger, with lanceolate- 

 acute segments: the corolla large, spreading very much, reddish- 

 purple: the petals with narrowed claws, covered with Avhite hairs, 

 inserted into a flesh-coloured tube: the stamens purple: the germ 

 roundish-compressed, with twenty grooves : the style divided into 

 about twenty parts: the stigmas long, recurved: the capsules about 

 twenty, black, smooth, fixed in a ring about a thick striated cone: 

 when the seeds are ripe, that part which is next to the axis appears 

 naked, on account of the pellicle which forms the internal part of 

 the capsule adhering to the axis. According to Linnaeus, the leaves 

 of the first year are very large, and those of the following much 

 smaller, which is a circumstance common to this with other plants of 

 the same natural order. It is a native of the south of France, 

 flowering from June to October. 



The sixth species has a round branched stem, from three to four 

 feet in height: the leaves are alternate, pelioled, shorter than the 

 petioles, roundish, but with the border so rolled back as to appear 

 triangular: the stipules cordate, broad, acuminate, serrate: the 

 flowers axillary : three peduncles, mostly one-flowered, in each axil, 

 upright, shorter than the petiole: the segments of the outer calyx 

 broad-cordate, acuminate : the inner calyx twice as large, five- 

 cornered, acuminate, with the corners prominent: corolla large, 

 spreading, pale purple, with the claws white, hairy: the capsules 

 about fifteen, in a ring about a column ending in a point. According 

 to Linnaeus, the whole plant is tomentose, being covered with very 

 small 'glutinous hairs, with other larger ones stellate at top mixed 

 among them. It is a native of France and Spain, flowering from 

 June to September.
