Chiengmai, in eng jungle on Doi Sootep, 390 m., Kerr, 1810. 



A living plant sent by Dr. Kerr to the Trinity College Botanic 

 Gardens, Dublin, which flowered there in August of the present 

 year, differs from the wild specimens only in having a minute and 

 scanty pubescence on the stem, peduncle and both sides of the leaf 

 which may be due to change of climatic conditions.
