Roxsuren’s Flora Indica. It is certain, however, that it is 
the L. Chinensis of Wartson’s Dendrologia, a name which 
De Canpotte has preferred. Being a native of China, it 
was at first treated as an inmate of the greenhouse or con- 
servatory, but it now proves to be perfectly hardy, and I 
have scarcely witnessed a more beautiful sight than a plant 
of this Honeysuckle, trained against the wall of Mr. Cur- 
TIs’s house at his extensive Nursery at Glazenwood, with its 
long pendent shoots and its copious flowers, appearing 
through a great part of the summer and autumn and scenting 
the air with their fragrance. From a branch of that plant, 
our drawing was made by Mr. S. M. Curtis. 
Descr. Stems long, climbing. Branches glabrous (ex- 
cept the younger ones), red-brown. Leaves opposite, ovate, 
acute, or somewhat acuminate, entire, veiny, on short pe- 
tioles, the upper and younger ones red-brown beneath and 
at the margin. Peduncles from the axils of all the upper 
leaves, short, solitary, each bearing two flowers, having two 
ovate bracteas or small leaves at their base. Germens di- 
stinct, roundish, oval. Corolla red without, yellowish-white 
within, glabrous, the tube gradually widening, the limb two- 
lipped : upper lip broad, erect, with four strap-shaped seg- 
ments, the lower lip of one linear-strap-shaped, recurved 
segment. Stamens as long as the corolla. Style longer 
than the stamens. Z
