Saxifraga boydii, Dewar (S. Burseriana x S. aretioides. S. Burseriana var. Boydii, Hort.). Plant tufted, gray and very slow-growing, fairly intermediate: lvs. more nearly resembling S. Burseriana, but instead of tapering to an acute point they are linear with an abrupt point: infl. 1-3-, rarely 4-5-fld.: fls. almost as large as those of S. Burseriana, but yellow as in S. aretioides. March. A garden hybrid. G.C. III.39:250. G.32:333. G.M. 53:317. Var. alba, Hort. (S. Burseriana var. Boydii, Hort.). A plant which very little resembles S. Boydii and by some is thought to be a hybrid (S. Rocheliana var. coriophylla x S. Burseriana). Lvs. subulate, arranged in small rosettes which form dense cushions: fls. white, borne on scapes about 2 in. high, bearing a cyme of 3-4 fls. Gn. 71, p. 178; 72, p. 177. It resembles S. Burseriana in many respects but differs in having larger lvs. and more fls. to a scape. Var. kestoni, Hort., is offered in the trade,— possibly the same as S. kestoniensis. CH
