The following descriptive notice of the plants in Tab. 1, will show 

 their close morphological relations. First, V. phceniceum ; stem somewhat 

 downy, simple, producing upwards a racemose panicle. Leaves 

 crenate, oblong-ovate, nearly glabrous above, deep green. Radical 

 subcordate, ovately-acuminate, petiolate. Upper cauline crenulated, 

 semi-amplexicaul. Bracteas lanceolate. Raceme elongated. Floicers 

 lax, solitary ; pedicels longer than the bracteas. Corolla purplish-violet, 

 beset with violet hairs at its base. Stamens ; filaments of the three 

 shorter stamens covered w 7 ith long glandular purplish hairs, these of 

 the two longer naked, except on the upper side, where there are a few 

 similarly characterised hairs. Anthers of the three longer stamens 

 nearly circular, and covered with purple and white glandulose hairs, 

 these of the shorter stamens, reniform and nearly naked. Pollen 

 copper-coloured. Second, V. phceniceum, roseum differs from the above 

 only in the less elongated raceme and the rose-coloured flowers. Third, 

 V. phceniceum, album is of a more robust habit than the other two.
