Dichroa febrifuga, Lour. (Adamia versicolor, Fortune. Cyanitis sylvatica, Reinw.). Later writers also include Adamia cyanea, Wall., which Lindley distinguished by its smaller lvs. and fls., 5 petals, and 10 stamens, while A. versicolor had 7, or sometimes 6 petals, and 20 stamens. Plants may still be cult. under the name of A. cyanea, but it cannot be stated here how distinct they are for horticultural purposes. A somewhat virgate shrub 5-9 ft. tall, with lanceolate or obovate- lanceolate lvs. to 8 in. long, glabrous except on the nerves; petals less than ¼ in. long. Clarke states that the Chinese varieties have larger fls. than the Indian forms. Occurs in the temperate Himalayas from 5,000- 8,000 ft. B.M. 3046. P.M. 16:322. Wilhelm Miller. L. H. B. CH
