Sheet in the Gray Herbarium of Harvard University. KnCEiwtlicva grown by Dr. Asa Gray at Cambridge, Massachusetts, in 1862 and probably derived directly or indirectly from the cultures of Carter and Company, of London, which were distributed under the name Lamaychiana. This plant differed from CBnotheya Lamaychiana De Vries in the longer internodes of the inflorescence, in the larger and more leaf-like bracts, in the more slender form of the buds, in the more attenuated sepal tips, and in the longer seed-capsules. The sheet in the Gray Herbarium (Fig. 1) holds specimens of a plant " Oe, Lamarckiana" grown in Cambridge, IVIassachusetts, in 1862 by Dr. Asa Gray. From records upon the sheet' it appears quite certain that Dr. Gray received seeds from William Thompson ' See Davis, American Naturalist, vol. 46, p. 417, Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Vries, Hugo de, 1848-1935.
