A native of the Cape of Good Hope; introduced into our gardens by BRADLEY in 1725; is a plant of easy culti- vation and propagated by seeds and offsets.

There are four varieties according to Mr.

HAWORTH, while DECANDOLLE and others enumerate only three; their differences confift chiefly chiefly in ftature and in the greater or less number, as well as regularity, of the pearl-like warts that beset the leaves, which are many, from one to six inches in length, all radical and fparfely ambient round the branched fcape, which is from vo to three feet high with somewhat whirled upright branches.

The flowers are of the smaller size, of a dullifh herbaceous colour, and arranged in a loose raceme; the segments of the corolla far-concrete and reflectedly patent upwards; three outer ones flat, inner ones fubchannelled at their summit ; stamens unequal; stigma simple.

DECANDOLLE has figured the smallest variety only.
