314 A NEW. GENUS OF ASPHODELE. 
Boronia Molloyi is also sent, and two remarkable varieties of 
the same, one with pink or rose-coloured flowers, hairy 
leaves and an upright mode of growth; the other is droop- 
ing, and has smooth foliage and flowers, which sport into 
endless gradations of deep purple, rose and crimson, and 
shading off to snow white; occasionally the extremes of deep 
purple and white being seen on one plant, and even in the 
same blossom ; for instance, half white and half crimson, or 
snow white just tipped with purple. Few plants will be so 
much admired in England as my Boronia Molloyi, as no per- 
son can be more deservedly regretted than the amiable lady 
whose name it bears. 
Nos. 97 and 98 I suppose to be new species of Roea; the 
leafless one, 98, has a curious twisted permanent style. 
No. 100 belongs to the Leguminose, and in my opinion con- 
stitutes a totally new form of that order, belonging to it m 
the same way as Chorilena and Diplolena do to Rutacee. 
Should it prove a new genus, as I anticipate, I would request 
that it may be called Huttia quadriflora, after our present — 
Governor, who is most kindly willing to promote the views — — 
of those Naturalists who desire to explore the colony. —
