honour of having a new genus named after him, had his pre. 
mature fate been poftponed.” 
Sir James Epwarp Smit has defcribed, in the above. 
mentioned work, three other fpecies of this genus, none of which 
appear to have been as yet introduced into this country, though 
one of them, the /errulata, feems to be a very ornamental plant, 
and is {aid to poflefs the fcent of the rofe. 
The Boronia pinnaia is a very elegant fhrub, which fpreads 
wide and grows about two feet high, being covered with a pro- 
fufion of fweet-fcented bloffoms during great part of the fpring 
and fummer, which remain long in beauty. Upon the whole, 
it appears to us to be one of the moft defirable plants that have 
been as yet introduced from New South-Wales. The honour 
of its introduétion is attributed to Mefirs. Lez and Kennepy, 
Communicated to us by Meffts, Loppices and Sons.
