Tibouchina semidecandra, Cogn. (Lasiandra macrantha, Lind. & Seem. Pleroma macranthum, Hook.). Fig. 3807. A tender shrub: lvs. ovate or oblong-ovate, 2-6 in. long, round at the base, short-petioled, densely setose above, villous beneath, not foveolate, 5-nerved or 3-nerved: bracts broadly suborbicular, somewhat rounded at the apex and shortly apiculate, margin not translucent: fls. reddish purple to violet, often 5 in. across, solitary and terminal or 1 fl. terminal and 2 in the upper axils on the branchlet; stamens purple; style setulose. Brazil. B.M. 4412 (as P. Kunthianum); 5721. F.S. 23:2430. Gn. 44:120. F. 1868:193. I.H. 16:594. G. 29:34. G.W. 7, p. 390. G.Z. 15:1. J.H. III. 42:219. H.F. II. 10:72. Var. floribunda is more suited to pot cult. and flowers more freely than the type when small. Lasiandra, or Pleroma splendens, Hort., should be compared with this. The fls. of T. semidecandra last but a day or so, but the flowering season lasts for several weeks. Plants may also be used for summer bedding. They are seldom out of bloom. The species is much esteemed in Fla., where it makes a showy shrub 8 ft. high. It endures a few degrees of frost with impunity, and even if cut down it sprouts readily. | Tibouchina semidecandra, Cogn. (Lasiandra macrantha, Lind. & Seem. Pleroma macranthum, Hook.). Fig. 3807.
