consequence of the necessity of keeping it in a pot in a 

 stove or greenhouse, — a situation in which it does not 

 thrive ; but planted in the open ground of a conservatory, 

 or even in the open border, in such countries as the south 

 of France, where the summer temperature is sufficiently 

 high, this and many others become the chief ornaments 

 of a garden. 



Flowers in July and August, and strikes readily from 

 cuttings : with us it rarely ripens seeds. 



Bi^anches densely downy, taper. Stipidce subulate. 

 Leaves of from 6 to 9 pair; the petiole downy ; a subulate 

 gland between the base of each of the lower pair ; leaflets 

 obovate or oblong, largest upwards, slightly hairy. Pe- 

 duncles axillary, filiform, 2-flowered, shorter than the leaves. 

 Flowers large, deep yellow.
