11. Crassifolia. — Ex portu St. Mary, Floridae Orien- 
talis. lat. circit. 29. Foliis crassis, suberectis, 
loratis, obtusis, canaliculatis, subtripedalibus, 2-unc. 
latis, viridibus, perianthii corona fere uti in Cari- 
baea, tubo longiore ; bulbo e majoribus. Three 
bulbs of this species were brought from Florida by 
Fraser, about twenty years ago ; two of them were 
purchased by myself, the other, as Fraser informed 
me, was bespoken by Lord Mountnorris ; whether 
it is living, 1 know not. One of mine was lost by 
neglect a few years ago ; the other flowered the 
first summer, but never since, nor has it yielded 
any increase. The inflorescence was sent to Dr. 
Sims, who, by some mistake, mislaid it, and I had 
made no memorandum concerning it. Its long 
erect thick leaves, scarcely attenuated, are very 
remarkable. It probably requires a cooler tempe- 
rature than I have ventured to give it.
