Eastern Himalaya of from 14,000 to 15,000 feet; but may be 
found as low down as 8000 feet, m moist valleys, forming a 
stout tortuous stock: the dranches, as thick as a crow’s quill, 
rather scattered, bearing tufts of branchlets at the top. It isa 
slender or stout twiggy shrvd, one to four feet high, branching, 
often growing in widely extended clumps, as heather does with 
us, but never so extensively ; and it emits in sunshine a powerful 
resinous odour. eaves of a pale glaucous green, lighter under- 
neath, and sometimes ferruginous where the scales abound, one- 
half to one and a half inch long. ower-stalks more or less elon- 
gated, one and a half to two inches long, slender. Corolla 
yellow or dirty purple, half an inch across the lobes, scaly, espe- 
cially on the outside of the tube; the upper lobes are spotted 
with green.—The odour of this plant is strongly resinous, and 
rather sweetish and pleasant. Its common native name is 
Tsaluma, or Tsuma, amongst the Bhoteas.” Look. il.
