Of this most beautiful and fragrant Jessamine I have given a full description in the work quoted above; and I 
will only add here that the berries are oblong, kidney-shaped, sometimes obovate, generally twin, shining, of a dark 
purple colour, one-seeded, the epidermis ash-coloured, separating.

Habitat per totam feré Hindustaniam gangeticam in pascuis agrisque, florens fructiferumque sub pluviis. In Napalia 
1821. In Kamaon (Robertus Blinkworth). 
A description of this species has been given by Dr. Roxburgh in his Fora Indica, who concludes it in these words : 
“This is one of the most elegant plants I have met with, the flowers being not only numerous, large, and beautiful, 
but retaining their beauty for many days, which is a rare circumstance in an Indian plant."

FRAXINUS FLORIBUNDA. Tab. 277. 
Fraxinus floribunda, Wall. in Roxb. Flor. Ind. vol. 1. p. 150. 
Crescit in sylvis Napaliæ, florens fructiferaque a mense Aprilis usque ad Junium. 
Since the time when I published the description of this noble tree, which is called Lakkurree in the Newar 
language, I have seen it in its native country, where it attains an immense size. The flowers are most frequently 
hermaphrodite. The ovary is small, compressed, covered with detachable purple scales, two-celled; each cell with 
two eylindric pendulous ovules; style short, flattened, smooth; stigma very long, fleshy, erect, furrowed, its apex, 
which is on a level almost with the anthers, bifid. 
The wood, according to Mr. Aikin, is precisely like English Ash. (See List of Indian Woods, in the Transactions 
of the Society of Arts, vol. 48. p. 454.)
