_ The plant here figured, and very generally known tot 
_ Nurferymen, in the neighbourhood of London, by the name 
of Glycine rubicunda, is a native of New South-Wales, and 
was introduced to this country about the fame time as U 
Glycine bimaculata already figured. a oe 
It is a fhrubby, twining plant, running up to the height Toe 
five, fix, or more feet, producing bloffoms abundantly from 
April to June, which are ufually fucceeded by feed-vell 
which ripen their feeds with us. eee 
The flowers though large and fhewy, have a kind of dingy 
or lurid appearance, which greatly diminifhes their beauty- 
We have obferved the blofloms of fome plants more-brilliant 
‘ than thofe of others, and we think it highly probable, that, 
_ fome future period, feminal varieties may be ‘obtained with 
- flowers highly improved in colour. 3 ee 
_ This fpecies is readily raifed from feeds, is of quick grow™ 
_ and may be regarded as one of our more hardy green-not 
_ plants: probably it may fucceed in the open air, if plant 
_a warm fituation, and fheltered in inclement feafons. _
