This plant is well defcribed by Smirxu; but, according to 
Brown, the corolla is at firft monopetalous, with a very fhort 
tube, though it is finally divided to the bafe. The latter author 
has ‘defcribed two fpecies, in the firft of which only, our prefent 
plant, the anthers are ‘coherent; a circumftance which entirely 
deftroys the value of this chara€ter. 
Native of New South-Wales. Is readily propagated by 
cuttings ; and requires the fame treatment as the Cape Heaths. 
Introduced in 1793, by Meffrs, Leg and Kennepy. Com- 
municated by Mr. R. Sweer. .
