of an orange-red colour ; those of jamaicensis are described 

 as being white, and are so represented both in Ehret's and 

 Jacquin's figures. In a specimen, according perfectly with 

 our plant, given us by Dr. Heyne, and brought by him 

 from the East-Indies, the fruit has the subulate termination 

 as described. 



Our drawing was taken from a very small shrub, commu- 

 nicated in blossom in September 1818, by Mr. Jenkins, of 

 Gloucester-Place, in the New-Road, who raised it from a 

 cutting taken from an old plant five or six feet high, which 

 was several years in the Comtesse De Vandes stove, at Bays- 

 water, but has since unfortunately perished.
