They are perennial plants of South Africa and St. Helena, with radical 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 Baillon, Henri Ernest, 1827-1895; Hartog, Marcus Manuel, 1851-.
