TiiK Mysoije IIkxaoenthk {Hcxacentrk MyMrcnHH.)—Th\n cliarrnin- piono clinibor from 

 India is well worthy tlie attention of ainatonr or profossionul growors of new and rare 

 plants. It wa.s shown first in En-land, in May, l8o2, before the London Ilortieultural 

 Society, and was pronounced the most attractive among all the new and fine plants exhibited. 

 This is saying a gruit deal. We copy the following cut and de8crii)tion from Paxtovis 

 Flower Garden : 



MYSORE HEXACENTRE. 



"Among all the fine plants exhibited in the garden of the Horticultural Society last May, none 

 excited such universal interest aa tl.at now represented. It formed a small umbrella-like creeper 

 trained over trelhs in the manner represented in the annexed vignette, the whole circumference 

 ol whRli was loaded with pendulous i^acemes of most beantifal large vellow and crimson tlowcra 

 llie plant was sent to Messrs. Vetich, of Exeter, from the Mysr.re country, which it inhabits, as its 

 name indicates. No doubt it is the best hot-house climber that ha5 been introduced for many years.
