Description:
Type: The specimen used for the drawing, cultivated in the garden of the Horticultural Society of London ("H.H.S.") (lectotype, CGE, designated by Yeo, 1967). Yeo (1967) details a long and plausible argument for why M. longiflora belongs here, in the synonymy of M. insignis, and does not equal the taxon described by Smith (1932).
Illustrated: Baileya 15: 52, fig. 2. 1967.
