| notes: | "I do not know if these come under Mr Druce's variety: but, in the present case, they would seem to be merely a state due to situation. They grew amongst long herbage at the bottoms of hedges and bushes." - J Comber. "If I remember rightly, Mr Druce's specimens, issued through the Bot. Exch. Club,are far less luxuriant, though much like this in essentials. Very handsome and striking." E.S.M. "P. media L., var. Monnieri Rouy (=P. Monnieri Giraud)." - E.G.B. |
