This species is not less common than the former in our collections, and as easily propagated. They all succeed best with us in sandy loam well drained, but will not bear confining in small pots. Stem pubescent. Leaves 1 line broad, 1½ to 2 inches long, linear, rolled back at the margin, beyond the middle spinulously serrated, 3-pronged at the top. Stigma club-shaped.

Salisb.

The name is derived from στυλοσ εςοσ; the style terminating in a tail behind the stigma.

Buxifolia, 1. S. foliis 3-5 lineas longis, ovali-lanceolatis, margine valde revolutis: floribus foliis multo altioribus.
