P. suffruticosa. Pior tui. 
In South Carolina. FrUser. 1/ . Aug. — Oct. v. v. in 
Hortis. Near two feet high ; flowers of a brilliant 
purple, which is deeper than in any other species. This 
species approaches near to P. Carolina ; but besides its 
other chaiacters it distinguishes itself very easily by 
flowering later and longer than that species.
