This fine shrub, a native of Cayenne, is not often known to 
blossom in our collections. When planted in the ground within 
the hothouse, it mounts to a considerable height, and we 
have seen it with a tall flexible stem, nearly an inch in 
diameter; branched and climbing, as usual with the genus, 
by claspers. Leaves broader than long, 4-5 inches over, half 
three-lobed, cordate at the base, lobes ovate, obtuse, dark 
green on the upper side, grey on the under and reticu- 
lately veined : petioles with from 2 to 4 glandular tubercles: 
stipules two, opposite, large, parabolical, lanceolate. Pe- 
duncles solitary, one-flowered, rather thick: involucre of 
three small ovate bractes, close below the flower. Flowers 
fugitive, tender, delightfully fragrant, little less than / 
three inches in diameter. Calyx and corolla nearly of one
