From Olaheite the seeds Mere sent by the Missionaries to 

 the Botanic garden at Calcutta, where in two or three years, 

 the plants they produced were ten or twelve feet high, wish 

 a perfectly straight trunk to the very top, amjily decorated 

 with long, spreading branches down to the ground. All the 

 tender parts rather sparingly clothed with whitish stellate 

 hairs, on the base of the middle nerve is a long gland under- 

 neath ; the leaves next the llowers are generally entire, and 

 lanceolar, all are obtuse pointed, even the lobes. The inner 

 calyx in this species is strongly marked by having ten seg- 

 ments, they are alternately smaller, and the capsule is ten- 

 celled, or rather has five double cells, as in Gartner's H. 

 tiliaceus, the flowers are large, bright yellow, with a deep 

 purple coloured bottom ; they appear during the cold seasoq
