Napoleona (after Napoleon Bonaparte). Lecythidaceae. A small but botanically remarkable genus of Trop. W. Afr., very little known in cult. and demanding no treatment here. The fls. are of interesting structure. They are shaped like a saucer, about 2 in. diam., and the dominant color is reddish and bluish. The petals, staminodia and stamens are in 4 concentric rows, and more or less joined at the base to form the saucer or cup; the petals, on the outside, are connate and form a circular membrane or rim with many folds: the staminodia, free or nearly so, form a second row: the third row of connate staminodia; inner row of good stamens also connate at base. In the Flora of Trop. Afr. the fls. are said to be red, white or blue. Elsewhere it is stated that the fls. turn bluish as they decay. The names and illustrations of the species are confused. The names met in horticultural literature are N. imperialis, Beauv., N. Heudelotii, Juss., N. Whitfieldii, Lem., N. Mannii, Miers, N. cuspidata, Miers, N. Mtersii, Hook. f. In B.M. 7199, some of the synonomy of the species is explained, with references to figures.<br />
