Although we have no doubt but that our plant is the fame as 

 the one defcribed by our friend Dr. Smith, in the Cyclopaedia, 

 vet we are far from being convinced that it is the tripkyUm 

 of Labillardiere, in whole figure the form of the leaves 

 and of the flipules is very different ; his plant too efpecially 

 differs, in that the latter are on longifh footflalks ; and the 

 barren filaments are defcribed to be fhorter than the fertile 

 ones. 



Native of New-Holland. Flowers from May to July. Re- 

 quires the flicker of a greenhoufe. Propagated by cuttings. 

 We were favoured with the plant, from which our drawing was 

 taken, by Meffrs. Chandler and Buckingham, Nurfcrymen, 

 in Vauxhall-Road.
