CROTON TRILOBUS. 
In this we have the type of an entirely new race of Crotons, having lohate leaves, and therefore quite 
distinct from those already familiar in gardens. The more perfectly formed leaves have a kind of 
hastate or halberd-shaped outline, but with an elongated base. The costa and principal veins are 
marked out by lines of golden yellow, and the leaves are variously reticulated and spotted with the 
same on a green ground ; the veins themselves eventually take on a crimson hue, and the same is 
extended to the spots, while more or less of the orange tint, caused by the blending of the yellow and 
red, becomes suffused over the surface, and the underside is of an uniform wine-red in the mature 
stages. 15s. and 1 guinea.
