* (On the authority of a writer in Mag. Nat. Hist, as a curious instance of viviparous 
production and retentive vitality, it may be recorded, that the seeds in specimens of this 
plant which had been kept for two years, were found germinating in the calyx, and some 
had even put forth their cotyledon. E.)
