HAVILAND. 531 



philas, having a profuscness of large creamy flowers, 

 and well deserves to be brought in to our gardens. 

 It is found on stony country, and frequently among 

 the Myoporuras, Geijera, and "Budtha." July. 



E. MACULATA F.v.M. "Native Fuchsia." On the nor- 

 thern extremes of the district, and very scarce. A 

 beautiful shrub, with dark red flowers, spotted. It 

 is reputed to be poisonous when in fruit. 



E. Mitchell: Benth. "Budtha," "Rosewood," "San- 

 dalwood." Everywhere on soft soil as long as not 

 too elevated. The wood is useful for small ornamen- 

 tal work. Flowers profusely in September. 



E. Sturtii R.Br. "Turpentine-Bush." Very resinous. 

 Cobar generally, and in company with the former 

 species, which it always follov/s in flowering. Octo- 

 ber. I think this must be the viscid bush mentioned 

 in Mr. Cambage's list, between Boui'ke and Cobar, 

 but the flowers were not seen by him. It answers to 

 his description. 



Verbenace^. 



*Verbena venosa G.&H. At Wittagoona. October. A pest. 

 Spartothamnus junceus a. Cunn. On soft soil at Cobar. 

 I have seen onl}- one plant in the district. March. 



Labiate. 



Prostanthera Leichhardtu Benth. The Peak. This had 

 been known only as a Queensland plant till found 

 by Mr. E. C. Andrews at the above place. It is to 

 be hoped that its deep purple and green flowers will 

 not attract the ravages of children to eradicate it 

 before getting a good footing. There are only half a 

 dozen bushes of it growing in a "fault" on the Peak. 

 It is very easy to strike, and I have a healthy plant 

 of it in a flower-pot, from a cutting.
