Remarks
The following quoted from Gard. Chron. (ser. 3, 13(no. 328): 414. 8 Apr 1893): HORT. DAMMANN: Messrs. Dammank & Co. announce the following novelties, many from Abyssinia, and which are, therefore, likely to be interesting. We have not seen the plants, and take the following details from Messrs. Dammann's list: — … Huernia Sprengeri, — An Abyssinian succulent plant, branches quadrangular, deeply and sharply lobed, 6 to 8 inches high, covered with tufts of large bronzy-yellow flowers.
