our Gardens they are generally unsightly and neglected ; 

 a circumstance which arises entirely out of our bad or 

 imperfect cultivation. We grow them in a pot, where 

 they are suffered to languish ; or, if they attempt to push 

 vigorously, the pruning knife is freely employed to restrain 

 them within such a space as the gardener can afford. They 

 will not bear pruning; they require plenty of space to 

 grow, and encouragement rather than restraint. If a more 

 liberal and judicious management were adopted, many 

 species, particularly this, would amply repay the care of 

 the cultivator.

Our drawing was made some time since from a specimen 

 communicated by A. B. Lambert, Esq. Flowers in May 

 and June. The blossoms are fragrant, with a scent like 

 that of a Heliotrope. According to the Botanical Magazine, 

 the pairs of leaves are sometimes 12. 



Stem erect, shrubby, furrowed, pubescent. Leaves 

 somewhat hairy, horizontal; leaflets in 10 pairs, linear- 

 oblong, mucronate, with a somewhat winged petiole, and 

 a subulate gland between each pair; stipules subulate. 

 Peduncles axillary and terminal, shorter than the leaves, 

 each with 3 to 5 flowers, placed close together. Sepals 

 somewhat pilose. Petals deep yellow, nearly equal.
