We do not know of any published figure of this rare 
species. It has not appeared in the Hortus Kewensis, nor 
have we met with it among the numerous East Indian ones 
observed by Dr. Roxburgh; at least we find no mention of it 
in the manuscripts of that botanist in the Banksian Library. 
We were favoured with the specimen from a plant which 
flowered in Lady Aylesford's collection at Stanmore; but 
have never heard tliat the species has been seen in blossom 
in any other of our gardens. Very strong plants of it are 
growing at Messrs. Colville’s nursery in the King's Road, 
Chelsea, where they are kept in the hothouse. 
Native of China, and apparently more nearly related to 
Jasminum angustifolium than to any other; but in that the 
branches have scarcely any fur, tbe foliage is far more widely 
apart than in this, scarcely undulate and of a lighter green, 
` the flowers of much larger dimensions, and the leaves with 
an even ovately rounded, instead of a cordately indented, 
base. Thetwo agree however in the curious upright straight 
setaceously narrowed segments of the calyx.
