informs me that plants of this hybrid were found in the same 
locality nearly fifty years ago by his uncle, the late Mr. Richard 
Davey, M.P. for West Cornwall, but no record of the fact appears 
the last week i , when li had the good 
fortune to rediscover it. Following is a description drawn up 
fr pieces sent to me owers mostly erect, long-

sometimes a larger terminal umbel. Pedicels with three or four 
scattered pale linear-lanceolate bracteoles; pedicels, bracteoles, 
and margin of sepals, hairy. Corolla urceolate, rose-coloure 
rather smaller than in cinerea, teeth about one-sixth of the whole 
length. Stamens eed to those of vagans, but all included 
within the corolla. Style mae corolla by about the length of 
the teeth. Ovary hairy. e two parents are so common over 
the Lizard district that, now attention bas been directed to it,
