subsoil. They are very thirsty while in leaf, and it does 
not answer to pot them in sand. The same treatment that 
is recommended for A. Josephiniana will suit these plants. I 
do not know whether the green and red stemmed varieties 
are permanent by seed, but I find variation of leaf amongst 
the seedlings. 
2. Striata. — Jac. H. Schoen. 1. 70. A smaller plant 
than multiflora, with the nerves of the leaves 
stronger. 
Var. rosea; floribus roseis. Spec. Herb. Bank. Spec. 
Herb. Lamb, falso B. marginatae specimen esse 
putatum. 
3. Radulosa. — PI. 22. fig. 2. absque flore, adhuc ig- 
noto. Burchell Cat. 2703*. Spec. Burch. Herb, 
(una cum bulbis Angliam allatis) foliis margine 
(albo?) cartilagineo, obtuse ovalibus, 8 uncialibus, 
3^ latis, superficie asperrime et minute radulosa. 
Found by Dr. Burchell in the country of the 
Bushmen near the Gariep, putting out its leaves 
earlier than B. multiflora, but the inflorescence is 
unknown. Of three or four bulbs which he 
brought to Europe, one was given by him to 
Prince Leopold, and may perhaps be still pre- 
served at Claremont ; the others perished at Ful- 
ham. 
4. Minor. — Bot. Reg. 11. 954. 
Var. 2. floribus roseis. PI. 32. fig. 1. Burchell herb. 
4044. Langekloof. Bulb small and oval, leaves 
an inch wide, in form like those of Radula, but 
smooth or nearly so on the surface. Dr. Burchell 
found also the first variety, with flowers whitish 
within, mixed with the rose-coloured. 
5. Radula. — Jacq. Hort. Schoen. 1. 68. This plant, 
with a very small bulb, anti rasp-like leaves, is 
only known by the figure and description in Jac- 
quin’s work. It was probably one of Masson’s 
bulbs from the western coast of the Cape territory. 
Its flower approximates to that of Nerine a little, 
but I do not doubt its being a true Brunsvigia. 
6? Albiflora. — Ecklon topog. Verz. p. 7. is unknown to 
me, and I cannot judge what it may be.
