Plumbago zeylanica, Linn. Half-climbing, much branched, glabrous except the infl., which is glandular-hairy: lvs. ovate or oblong, obtuse or acute, the base of the short- winged petiole clasping the st.: fls. white, shorter than in P. capensis, the exserted part of the tube scarcely longer than the obovate retuse corolla-lobes, the calyx glandular-hairy: caps, long-oblong, 5-grooved above. Tropics of Asia and Afr., and east to Austral, and Hawaii. B.R. 32:23.—Little grown now, as it is inferior to the white-fld. form of P. capensis. Distinguished from that species by its shorter fls. and different lvs.
