of Dundee, by the late Mr G. Don of Forfar, who 

 cultivated it many years, under the name of P. de m 

 pauperata, — a name which I should have wished to 

 retain ; but as it is already applied to a very distinct 

 species, found by Humboldt and Bonpland in Equi- 

 noctial America, and described under that name in 

 their " Nova Genera et Species Plantarum," I have 

 been obliged unwillingly to alter it.
