side, though more shining than on the upper, have their 
interstices between the veins filled with a very fine greenish 
tomentum, and are hairy along the nerves. or larger veiis, 
and round the margins, and also along the petioles. The 
tendrils are long, and divided towards the extremity, which, 
on the flowering branches represented in our figure, of. 
course are not. seen, for being produced in the vine by 
abortive peduncles, when these bear flowers, no tendrils 
appear. The peduncles are opposed to the petioles, and 
bear compound racemes, on which the flowers grow several 
together from the same point, forming a number of little 
detached umbels. 
Jacquin’s Vitis incisa, is referred by Pursu to his cor- 
data ; his figure, however, evidently represents our plant, 
which we think must be Micnavx’s riparia. / 
Native of North America. Introduced, we believe, by 
the late Mr. Lyons, at whose sale our plant was bought by 
Mr. Watxer, under the name of odoratissima, but Mr- 
CHAUX’s name riparia has the right of priority. The flowers 
have a very sweet scent, which Pursu compares to that of 
Mignionette, It is hardy, and like other vines readily pro 
pagated by cuttings. | 7
