Primula paxiana, Gilg. Plant tall and very showy: lvs. very thin-membranaceous, reniform from an open cordate base, acute, many-lobed, at first sparse-pilose on the nerves, somewhat ciliate, primary nerves 3, prominent, dividing ternately, the lobes shortly and broadly triangular, denticulate; the petiole much exceeding the blade: scape tall, 16-20 in. high, sparsely puberulent, bearing 3—4 superposed umbels which are 4-6-fld. and 1-2 in. apart: bracts small, almost subulate: fls. bluish lilac; calyx campanulate, somewhat strigose-puberulent with acute lobes; corolla cylindrical, the limb up to 1 in. across, with obovate, deeply bifid lobes. China.—The foregoing species may be difficult to separate from printed descriptions. In P. Kaufmanniana and P. polyneura, the lf.-lobes are oval and few-toothed; the former has a glabrous and the latter a pilose calyx. In P. geraniifolia and P. Paxiana the lobes are triangular and many-serrate; in the former the corolla-tube is twice and in the latter thrice or more longer than the calyx.
V. Monocarpicae.
Lvs. little if at all lobed: calyx leafy, often much enlarging after flowering: Chinese.
