The involucre, bra£les, calyx, and corolla are all of a rofe- 

 colour, deepeft where moft expofed to the light, the firft and 

 laft tipped with green. A faccharine juice is fecreted in fo 

 large quantities as to drop from the flowers. 



We conclude that this fpecies is not contained in Mr. Salis- 

 bury's monograph on this genus, in the Tranfaclions of the 

 Linnean Society, as it is certainly not to be found in the neigh- 

 bourhood of glauca, its near affinity with which could not have 

 paffed unnoticed. But without this clue, even if prefent, we 

 might perhaps have overlooked it; for in fo extenfive a genus, 

 in which the fpecies are, for the moft part, given under new 

 names, and not arranged under different feclions, it is not 

 always eafy to determine, whether a required fpecies be there 

 or not. 



Is more eafily propagated and a much freer blower than glauca. 

 Our drawing was taken from a fine fhrub at Mr. Buchanan's, 

 Nurferyman, at Camberwell, who appears to be very induf- 

 trious in collecting rare plants, and obligingly communicative 

 to fcientific inquirers.
