PultjenjEA biloba is a very pretty lively little shrub, pro- 

 ducing from April to July, abundance of golden yellow flowers 

 with a dark purple keel. It is most nearly allied to Pulten/ea 

 scabra of the Hortus Kewensis, from which however it is 

 very distinct, the leaves of the latter being oblong-wedge- 

 shaped, and truncated, not dilated into two lobes at the apex, 

 as in our plant, in which also the stipules are not recurved, 

 but patent, or sometimes upright. 



We are indebted to our friend Mr. Robert Brown, for 

 his assistance in determining this species, by whom it was 

 first discovered in New South Wales. 



Raised from seeds by Messrs. Loddiges and Sons some 

 years ago, by whom it was communicated to us.
