ANNUAL LANTANA. LANTANA ANNUA.

Class and Order
DIDYNAMIA ANGIOsPERMIA.

Generic Character
. Cal. obsolete 4-dentatus. Cor. limbus 4-fidus, fauce pervia. stigma uncinato-refractum. Drupa nuce 2-loculari, laevi.

Specific Character and Synonyms
. LANTANA annua; soliis oppositis caule inermi, spicis ob- longis. spec. Pl. 864. Hort. Ups. 180. Mant. 419. Willd. sp. Pl. 3. p. 316. Reich. 3. p. 165. Mart. Mill. Dict. a. 4. Hort. Kew. 2. p. 350. LANTANA trisolia; soliis ternis, spicis oblongis imbricatis, floribus carneo-violaceis, fauce flava. Medicus in Act. Palat. v. 3. Phys. p. 222. ? The West-India Isles and the warmer parts of the continent of South-America contain many species of Lantana, most of which grow into shrubs of considerable height; this is an an- nual plant, but with an almost woody, stem. The flowers are of a pale lilac colour with a yellow throat and not changeable, as those of LANTANA aculeata, No. 96, and several others are ; the spikes, which are at first hemispherical, become afterwards oblong. Introduced before 1733, by Dr. WM. HOUsTON, as appears by MILLER'S specimen preserved in the Banksian Herbarium. Being an annual and not very readily producing ripe seeds in this country, it was probably of short duration; and we find no further trace of it, till seeds were brought from spain, with many other curious plants, by Lord HOLLAND, from whose collection at Holland-House our drawing was taken in August last. We believe it has never before been figured. Propagated by seeds only. Publisher:
