11. Cineraria aure3, or golden cineraria: flowers co- 
rymbed ; leaves lanceolate, ferrate, tomentofe under¬ 
neath. Stature of fenecio paludofus, but the flowers 
twice as large, yellow, with a large ray. Native of Si¬ 
beria ; perennial. 
12. Cineraria maritima, or fea cineraria ; flowers pani¬ 
cked ; leaves pinnatifid, lonj^ntofe ; divifions flnuated ; 
ffem flirubby. Stems many, woody, two or three feet 
high, divided in many branches, which have a white 
downy bark ; leaves very woolly, fix or eight inches long, 
deeply finuated, and jagged on their border. The Items 
which fupport the flowers are a foot or more in length, 
having two or three finall leaves on each, fhaped like 
tholh below, and terminated by many yellow' flowers 
gtpvying in panicles (or father corymbs) fh'aped like thofe 
of common ragwort; thefe' appear from June to Auguft, 
and the feeds ripen the beginning of Oftober. Gerard 
and Parkinfon fpeak of this plant as a native of Britain. 
Ray fays it is very common every where on the coaft of 
the Mediterranean, but that you. will look for it in vain 
in England, or any of the northern countries of Europe. 
Yet Miller affirms that it grpws naturally on the coalts 
of England and Wales. There is a variety of this, with 
items more woody; they rife higher, and do not branch fo 
much ; the leaves are broader, not lb much finuated, and 
of a very dark green on their upper fide; the flowers are 
produced in fmaller bunches, and rarely produce feeds in 
England; nor are the plants fo hardy. It is a native of 
the fea coafts of Dauphiny, Italy, and Sicily. 
13. Cineraria Canadenfis, or Canada cineraria : flowers 
panicled ; leaves pinnatifid, fubvillofe ; divifions finuated ; 
Item herbaceous. The daughter of the foregoing; the 
leaves, however, not tomentofe, but only lubvilloie, ef- 
pecially underneath. Found in Canada by Kalm. 
14. Cineraria capillacea, or hairy cineraria : leaves pin¬ 
nate ; pinnas capiilaceous, entire. 15. Cineraria linifolia, 
or flax-leaved cineraria : peduncles one-flowered.; leaves 
fcattered ; ftern flirubby. 16. Cineraria pufpurata, or pur¬ 
ple cineraria: ftern fub-bifiorous; leaves obovate, fiubto- 
mentofe. Natives of the Cape. 
17. Cineraria amelloides, or blue-flowered cineraria, or 
cape after: peduncles one-flowered ; leaves oppofite, ovate, 
naked; ftern underfhrubby. The leaves are petioled, ovate- 
oblong, green, and not afh-coloured ; feeds elliptic, com- 
prefled, pale, furrounded with a gently fweiling whitifli 
rim ; Item purplifh, rough, dividing into many branches 
near the root, fo as to form a low bufliy plant, leldom 
riling more than two feet high ; but the branches ex¬ 
tending more than a foot on every fide; leaves about an 
inch long, and a third part of an inch broad, thick, luc- 
culent, rough, leffile, generally two, but fometimes three, 
at a joint, or even four, two being larger and two fmaller. 
Towards the upper part of the branches arife the pedun¬ 
cles, from four to fix inches long, naked, each fupporting 
one flower, the ray of which is of a fine fky blue, and, 
after it has been feme time expanded, turns back to¬ 
wards the calyx. The whole plant is a little acrid to the 
tafte. It is never without flowers the whole year. The 
feeds were lent to Mr. Miller from the Cape in the year 
1753, and vegetated the following fpring in the Chellea 
garden. 
18. Cineraria Americana, or American cineraria: fhrub- 
by ; panicles axillary; leaves alternate, petioled, broad- 
lanceolate, ferrate; lfnootli above, and hoary underneath. 
The whole plant is clothed with an epidermis of very 
fine wool, which may eafily be rubbed off like a thin 
membrane; the branches, petioles, peduncles, and lower 
lurface of the leaves, are white with it; ftems woody; 
leaves veined, the confiftence of evergreens. Obferved in 
South America by Mutis. 
ij). Cineraria alata, or winged cineraria : ftern her¬ 
baceous ; leaves obovate, decurrent; flowers corymbed. 
Stem ereft, fparingly branched, angular, even, two feet 
high, with a branch next the flowers farther progreflive ; 
leaves quite entire, even, oleraceous, decurrent to the 
next,' ah inch in length. It forms the link between the 
Cacalias and the Othonnas. Native of the Cape. 
20. Cineraria elongata, or long cineraria : leaves fub- 
cordate gnawn; peduncles very long, fubulate-fcaly. Stem 
erefit, branched, a foot and half high, reddifh, at the ra¬ 
mifications) tomentofe. Native of the Cape. 
2,1. Cineraria cacalioides, or cacalia cineraria: leaves 
columnar, oblong, flefliy ; panicle terminal, elongated, 
few-flowered ; peduncles alternate. This very much re- 
fembles the cacalras, or foreign coltsfoot, in thefflefhinefs 
of the herb; indeed the fpecies in general are little more 
than cacalia furnifhed with a ray. 
22. Cineraria denticulata, or dentated cineraria leaves 
lanceolate, fmooth, toothletted; flowers panicled. 23. Ci¬ 
neraria perfoliata: leaves ovate, cordate, ftem-clafping; 
peduncles one-flowered, elongated. 24. Cineraria line- 
ata : leaves lanceolate, tomentofe underneath, ferrated at 
the end, toothed at the bafe. Found at the Cape by 
Thunberg. 
25. Cinerariahaftifolia,orfpear-leaved cineraria: leaves 
haftate; divifions lateral, bifid, divaricated. Stem ereft, 
more than a fpan high ; flower yellow. Native of the 
Cape; this we owe to Sparrmann. 
26. Cineraria Japonica, or Japan cineraria: leaves fword- 
fhaped, toothed, tomentofe; flowers terminal. Stem round. 
Ample, erect, tomentofe, a fpan high ; leaves alternate, 
acute, attenuated to both ends, erefit; the lower a hand 
in length, the upper gradually fhorter; flowers folitary or 
tern, yellow. Native of Japan. 
27. Cineraria rotundifolia, or round-leaved cineraria : 
panicles few-flowered; leaves petioled, ovate-roundifh, 
quite entire, tomentofe underneath ; ftern arboreous. 28. 
Cineraria repanda, or broad cineraria: panicles compound, 
racemed, dift’ufed ; leaves petioled, ovate, repand-linuate, 
tomentofe underneath ; Item arboreous. Natives of New 
Zealand. 
29. Cineraria lanata, or woolly cineraria: peduncles 
one-flowered ; leaves cordate-roundifh, feven-angled, la- 
nuginous underneath. In the beauty of its bloffoms, this 
fpecies, lately introduced-from Africa, by far eclipfes all 
the others cultivated in our gardens ; its petals exteriorly 
are of a moft vivid purple, interiorly they are white. It 
flowers early in the fpring; and, by proper management, 
maybe made to flower the whole year through. Found 
in the CanaryT(lands by Maffon, and introduced in 17.80. 
30. Cineraria humifufa, or trailing cineraria: peduncles 
one-flowered ; leaves kidney-form, lomewhat angular, pe¬ 
tioles eared, or naked at the end. The flowers are yellow, 
and both they and the calyxes are yiliofe and fomewhat 
rugged. 
31. Cineraria vifeofa, or clammy cineraria: peduncles 
one-flowered ; leaves pinnatifid-lobed, acute, vifeid, fome¬ 
what flefliy. Perhaps this may be .nothing more than a 
variety of the foregoing. They are both natives of the 
Cape of Good Hope, were found there by Maffon, and 
were introduced in 1774. 
32. Cineraria pbpulifolia, or poplar-leaved cineraria : 
flowers corymbed; leaves cordate, lomewhat angular, (o- 
mentofe underneath, petioles having feveral pairs of ap- 
pendicles at the end. Tins' is a fhrub with an angular 
tomentofe hoary Item ; leaves refembling thofe of white 
poplar, nerved, veined, green, and very fmooth on the 
upper furface, but white on the under; flowers yellow. 
Found in the Canary Ifiands by Maffon. 
33. Cineraria aurita, or purple-flowered cineraria: 
flowers corymbed ; leaves cordate, lomewhat angular, to¬ 
mentofe underneath; petioles two-eared at the bafe: 
Flowers purple; leaves refembling thofe of the poplar; 
and varying with larger and fmaller earlets. Native of 
Madeira; found there by Maffon. 
34. Cineraria malvtefolia, or mallow-leaved cineraria : 
flowers cymed ; leaves cordate, angular, lomewhat to¬ 
mentofe underneath; petioles fimpie. Native of the Ca¬ 
nary Iflands, and St. Miguel one of the Azores; found 
there by Maffon, and inti'oduced in 1777.
