PRAEGER—SOME ASIATIC SEDUMS. gi 
ing base exactly as in the Primuloides group of Rhodiola, to 
which the plant also conforms in its axillary flower-stems. It 
appears to be close to S. Balfouri, with which it agrees in its 
Sempervivum-like leaf rosette, cvmose inflorescence with arcuate 
branches and linear nectariferous glands (the last feature very 
unusual save in the T elephium section); I think it should be 
placed next to that species (of which a figure will be found in 
Notes R. Bot. Gard. Edinb. v, pl. Ixxxv).
