Abstract
Abstract This plant blowed in the Physick garden at Chelsea, and flourished there in great perfection in the year 1761. It produced abundance of branches, which spread themselves on the surface of the ground: these branches were greatly multiplied by side ones, which grow alternately; and are smooth towards the ground, and streaked towards the top, as the figure [Tab. X.] expresses. Each joint is furnished with many ovate-shaped leaved, having membraneous ciliated footstalks. This plant was also richly ornamented with abundance of buds and flowers: the flowers being of a sky-blew, with a dark embroidered purple bottom, made a beautiful appearance.
