softening :r.to the red. From the Inside of the 
flower springs a stem, which parts at top

stamina, with small vellow oblong pzrrs stick-

Before the flower blows, it is inclosed in a 
dirty red sheath ; which hangs below it, and 
withers whtn the flower blows.- The green 
leaves of the plant grow much in the m.anner 
expressed by the flgure. I drew this flower 
from nature, in the garden of my friend Mr. 
John Warner, Merchant, at Rodicrhithe."
