Sida hermaphrodita, Rusby (S. Napaea, Cav. Napaea hermaphrodita, Linn.). A hardy herbaceous perennial 5-8 ft. high, from a stout root: lvs. 3-8 in. long, 3-7-lobed; lobes triangular, long-acuminate, irregularly serrate: fls. perfect, white, about 1 in. across, in terminal corymbose panicles. June-Aug. S. Pa., W. Va., and Va. B.B. 2:422.—Cult. same as for hollyhocks; prop. by seed. Index Kewensis refers the above species to Napaea dioica, Linn., but according to Gray's Synoptical Flora of North America the two species belong to separate genera, the fls. of the first being hermaphrodite, of the second dioecious. Napaea dioica is a strong-growing perennial 5-9 ft. high, with large radical lvs. often 1 ft. across and 9-11-cleft, the segms. cut into lanceolate serrate lobes: fls. dioecious, white, smaller than in Sida Napaea. For pictures of the two plants, see B.B. 2:420, 422. CH
