Found on the Continent. 



Obs. — This is a pretty little species and quite distinct from 

 S. curt a (Mart.). Whether it is the true Jwif/. rosacea of Corda 

 is doubtful, for it does not agree with the figure given in Sturm's 

 Deutschl. Flora, which seems to represent some small form of 

 S. undulata. 



S. rosacea is at once distinguished from S. curt a by its rather 

 larger size and beautiful rosy or claret-coloured foliage. The 

 stems are somewnat succulent and tender, which character alone 

 separates it from any of the small forms of the other British 

 SeajJanicB.
