2 P.M. 2 Lindléyi ( figs. 1882. and 
1883., from specimens sent 
home by Hartweg. )—Cones with 
the scales flattened, or very 
slightly tuberculated at the tip. 
Found on the road to Sumate, 
where it grows from 40 ft. to 
50 ft. high. The cones of P. 
Montezume, which were dis- 
tributed by the Horticultural 
Society in 1839, differ so much 
from those of this species in 
Mr. Lambert’s possession, and 
also from cones sent from 
Mexico to Mr. Henchman, that 
we have thought it advisable to 
keep them distinct. The cones 
in Mr. Lambert’s possession are [ES 
much tuberculated, as are also &Y ‘i 
those of Mr. Henchman ; while ss 
those distributed by the Hor- 1862: -PMotitezame Lindleys, 
ticultural Society have the tips of the scales almost flat; and there- 
fore we have thought it advisable to mark the Horticultural Society’s 
plant as a variety, till something more is known respecting it. 
_ Atall tree. Branchlets covered with thick scabrous bark. Leaves generally 
in fives, rarely in threes or fours; stipular, persistent, lanceolate, much pointed,
