There is a very remakable difference in the whole habit of 
this tree, from those species which approach so near to 
Mexateuca, as scarcely to be distinguished but by the fila-

name of CaLLisTEMON. 
Communicated by Mr. Wurrrzy, in July 1809. Native

to be protected from frost. Propagated by cuttings. First 
raised about the year 1787, in the garden of the late 
Dr. WixiiAm Prrearmy, at Islington. 7
