715 (already sent in) Specimen from a clearing near Santa Marta, Dec, 8 This 
species Varies in habit. The ordinary form near Santa Marta and Bonda 
is either prostrate or ascending, with slender branches three ft long &■ 
or more; it may be erect, with long branches (on well grown plants) or ± 
short ones; T can find no essential dmffei-ence between the erect and 
prostrate plants, and the forms pass into each other; thus, a, plant may 
have long prostrate branches at the base and a central erect but slender 
stalk. The species is rather rare in the region inland from Santa, Marta., 
in open ravines and clearings; flowers Oct. -Dec, Petals whitefnot pale 
yellow as I stated erroniously in my former note)
