The native country of this plant is not known: we 
presume it is South America, from its great resemblance 
to B. americana and its allies, from all of which, however, 
it is specifically distinct. 
It is a handsome stove plant, flowering from January 
till May. Our drawing was made in Mr. Lee's Nursery. 
Particularly distinguished by the difference in form 
between its upper and lower leaves, and by its taper 
branches and bright-yellow flowers, both densely covered 
with down. The young flowering shoots have a pendulous 
direction, which adds much to the beauty of the plant.
