and overtopping the stigma: pollen yellow. Germen
tomentose. Stigma large, sessile, capitate.
Our drawing of the present variety was made from a
plant at the Nursery of Mr. Colvill, in the King’s-road ;
it requires precisely the same sort of treatment as the
spotted flowered variety figured at folio 1. requiring a
little protection in Winter, as it is much more tender
than C. cyprius. It thrives best in a light sandy soil,
and may be propagated by layers, or from seeds, that
ripen in abundance.
