YUNNAN AND EASTERN TIBET. 225 
A delightful new species described in the Kew Bulletin by 
Mr. Botting Hemsley, from material grown from seed I collected 
in 1905. The plants do best in moist, shady situations, and grow 
in profusion in company with P. sikkimensis on the banks of 
mountain streams in S.E. Tibet.
