Pretty. Not uncommon in collections. Stem very villous. 

 Leaf heart-shaped at base, three-lobed in the frontward part.

 full lilac colour, the mouth of the tube of a dark, perhaps crim-

65. CALCEOLA^KI A, shrubby varieties of, have been raised from seeds, by Mr. Joseph Plant, florist, 

 Cheadle, Staffordshire. 



In Harrison's FloricuUural Cabinet, the number for October, 

 1835, are pictures of 15 flowers, the pictures coloured, of 15 

 varieties of Calceolaria ; and a statement, by Mr. Harrison, that 

 these are of the varieties which he considered the most handsome, 

 in " a considerable number of flowering specimens of seedling 

 shrubby calceolarias," that he had received in the summer of 

 this year from Mr. Joseph Plant, florist, Cheadle, Staffordshire. 

 The pictures show^ corollas varied in their size, shape, and es- 

 pecially in their colour ; some of them are very large, as com- 

 pared with the corollas of those shrubby kinds, deemed species, 

 that are usually cultivated.

Annual, hardy. " The flowers are large and extremely 

 showy, being not unlike, in form, size, and colour, those of Con- 

 volvulus tricolor [known by some by the name of " the convol- 

 vulus minor"]. The radical leaves are large, and greatly 

 resemble those of the garden spinach." ^triplicifolia " loves a 

 rich loamy soil, and is increased by seeds, which it affords in 

 abundance." The figure had been drawn at the nursery of 

 Messrs. Allen and Rogers, at Battersea. [British Floiioer-Garden^

Mr. Allan Cunningham knows only of this species that is in-
