Under this name are included many most distinct plants, but all possess green, glossy, acute, thick, petiolate lvs., truncate at the base and keeled beneath, which in one form are golden variegated when young, sessile fls. in spikes 1/4 - 1 in. long and lf.-like bracts as long as or longer than the calyx. Var. odora, T. Kirk (var. patens, Cheesem.), is perfectly globular in form. Var. prostrata, Cockayne, is quite prostrate with rooting branches.—Another form, not yet named, is erect, 2-3 ft. high, and sparingly branched. Late summer. New Zeal. V. anomala, J. B.
