26. LISSANTHE verticilfata. Lindl. in Append. Bot. Reg. Swan River, 

 no. 102. 



A plant of this very rare species has flowered in the 

 garden of the Horticultural Society in one of the green- 

 houses. Its blossoms are of no beauty, being very small, and 

 dull purple ; but the foliage is of a' brilliant green, beauti- 

 fully streaked with fine veins, and the manner of growth is 

 exceedingly graceful, resembling that of an Araucaria,_ or 

 some such plant, more than any thing I can compare it with. 

 It is certainly in point of foliage one of the prettiest plants 

 lately introduced. 



27. MANGLESIA glahrata. Lindl. in Append. Bot. Reg. Swan River, 

 no. 183. 



This plant has found its way into gardens, having been 

 raised from Swan River seed by Robert Mangles, Esq. of 

 Sunning Hill. It is a Proteaceous plant, allied to Grevillea, 

 with neat toothed long-stalked leaves, and very small white 

 flowers of no beauty. It is for its foliage alone that it will 

 be cultivated.

 It is said to resemble S. tigrina in several points, but to 

 difi'er in the much smaller size of the flowers, in its general 

 markings, in the warty, not lamellated, inner surface of the 

 hypochilium, &c. " The inner surface of the hypochilium, 

 although not broken up into lamella?, has the warts arranged 

 in a radiated manner."
