An old inhabitant of our gardens, bui now neglected for 
newer favourites. Nevertheless this Jasmine is sweet, pretty, 
easy to cultivate, and not growing more than five or six feet 
high, its slender branches are particularly well adapted to 
be wreathed round one of those moveable trellises which 
gardeners now employ with so much advantage for their 
tender climbers. 
It is a native of the Cape of Good Hope, according to 
Thunberg as high as a man in Sas Kloof, by the great 
stream called Zonder End, and in the neighbourhood of 
Brederivier. \ 
It is a hardy greenhouse plant, flowering all the summer 
long. The drawing was made in the garden of the Society 
of Apothecaries at Chelsea.
