It bears no little resemblance to the Retania of TenerifFe, 

 Cytisus nubigenus, and will doubtless be one day associated 

 in the same genus with that species, whenever Botanists shall 

 discover the true mode of grouping the European genera of 

 Papilionaceous plants. 



The accompanying figure was taken from a specimen 

 that flowered with Messrs. Young of Epsom, in May 1835. 

 It is multiplied by seeds and cuttings, and must be treated 

 as a greenhouse plant in winter. It is another of those 

 plants which might be successfully managed in a moveable 

 temporary glass-house.
