The present variety differs from the type in having much smaller 

 i j o\vers, ovate -lanceolate leaves, and not leafy inflorescence. It resembles 

 the typo in stamens, achenes, and especially in glabrous sepals turning 

 black when dried. The type has usually larger r'owers with sepals twice as 

 long as tho.se of the variety, longer, looser and less i'owerel inf'oreseence, 

 with longer psduncles. The variety is represented at Kew by a specimen 

 from Hongkong, which is labelled 6'. undnala ; but is different from the 

 typo of the species mentioned.
