| Alonsoa warscewiczii, Regel (A. incisifolia var. Warscewiczii, Boiss. A. grandiflora, Hort. A. compacta, Hort.). Fls. large, the plant herbaceous or nearly so and treated as a garden annual: lvs. cordate or cordate-lanceolate, double-toothed: calyx-lobes blunt; upper lobes of corolla 4—5 times as long as calyx, and anthers 3—4 times shorter than the crooked filaments, the fls. light cinnabar-red or scarlet-red (and a white variety). Peru.—Apparently the commonest alonsoa in gardens, 2-3 ft., readily grown from seeds as a half-hardy subject; July till autumn; useful also for winter bloom.
