•faintly fragrant. — Style twice the leuglK of the tube. Stigma cii.b- 

 bed. — Berry generally two-seeded. 



Obs. In all the foregomg species the berries are two-seeded,

 Leaves in approximate pairs, very long, linear-lanceolate, acuminate

A native of Travancore. Introduced into the Botanic Garden by 

 Dr. A. Berry in 1808. Time of bloi-'soming the hot season ; the
