Tetrandria monogynia
Flowers small cruciform, sessile each furnished with a small acuminate deciduous bractea. Spike crowded from 5 to 10 inches long. A luxuriant plant may bear three spikes. The bloom commences at the bottom of the spike.
Calyx petaloid, deeply 4 divided : divisions equal oval terminating each in a dry black point. The calyx is at first very white but soon becomes greenish even before the shriveling of the pistill & anthers. Calyx remains shrivelled & attached to the mature seed vessel.
Corolla non unless you choose to call the ca=lyx so. —
Stamina invariably 4. Filaments white 5 or 6 times the length of the calyx, clavate, flattened above, minutely filiform at their insertion which is at the bottom of the calyx *nearly* or quite in contact with the style. *Anthers si= =tuated at the top of the filaments (as in Yucca. — see the specimens) Stamina soon drop. *anthera biloeulares
Pistillum. Germen inferior tetragonal. Style not more than 1/3 of the length of the fila =ments. Stigma large, globose. Pistill white, shrivels & falls a little before the stamina!

Capsule short, 4 angular, spermous. The capsule seems to be a wrinkled tunic without valves or any determinate mode of opening. It adheres to the seed.
Seed eggeshaped small end uppermost.
Caulis 4-5 pedalis, medullosus a "teres atque rotundus" The foliation Mr. Elliott is qualified to describe from the specimen affored last year. The leaves resemble at first view those of the rose.
