Symphyandra hofmannii, Pant. Much branched, 1-2 ft. high, pilose: branches decumbent: lvs. oblanceolate, acute, doubly dentate: fls. white, pendulous, 1 1/2 in. long, 1 in. or more across, borne in a large leafy panicle: calyx-tube hemispherical, without appendages, segms. large, leafy, cordate; corolla campanulate, hairy inside. Bosnia.—Under favorable conditions in England this plant has maintained a succession of bloom from July-Dec. In Amer. the plant is said to be liable to exhaust itself in blooming, thus behaving like a biennial. It has large fleshy roots, needs a dry position, and sows itself. A plant of good habit and well worth cultivating. CH
