the idea of something between C. crispa and r. Viorna; and it is 



v.id also to bear some resemblance to C. reticulata. 



(ii'vgrafifiy, Ili.-ittin/, AT. It is found in Georgia and Carolina, and 



was tir-t brought to Fngland in 1S1'2, probably by Lyon, who made 



a large importation of plants in that year. It appears to have flowered 



lor trie tirst time in Fngland, in CofviU's Nursery, in lSi>2, whence it 



was figured by Watson. It is now to be met with in very few col- 

 lections.

Description. In Don's J/7//., the flower of this 

 species is stated to resemble that of C. Viorna ; 

 but, In the figure in Watson's JJc/idr., it is quite 

 dissimilar. In C'. Viorna the sepals do not diva- 

 ricate, except in their recurved tips : C. reticulatu 

 is depicted with sepals expanded in the mode of 

 those of C. Viticella. A .side view of a flower less \ \ X\' 

 expanded resembles more the flower of C. cylin- ~V N 

 drica, but the cvlindrical portion is shorter. The 

 flo\\ers (sepals) of the tuo are different in colour. 

 The reticulation of the veins, in the leaves of C. 

 reticulata, is the character expressed in the specific 

 epithet- The stems of C. reticulata are not truly 

 ligneous. In the new edition of the If of. J/c/if., 

 edited by Dr. Hooker, and published in l^.').'>, C. Smis/V and C. reticulata arc 

 made svnonvmoiis.
