"Luciilia gratissima Sweet Brit. P'l.-Gard., 1. 145.; Cinchona gratissima Wall. 

 in Fl.Ind.,2.p. 154.; Mussce'nda Luculia Ham. MS., D. Don Prod. Fl. 

 Nep. ; Luculi Swa, Nejjalese ; and our Jig. 2484. ; is a shrub, or small tree, 

 with opposite, dotted, and slightly pubescent branches; leaves opposite, 

 acuminated, paler green on the under side, the nerves strongly marked, 

 and covered with a short villous down, 

 with a little bunch of down in the axils of 

 each. Flowers disposed in a terminal 

 cyme; large, showy, of a beautiful pink 

 or light rose colour, and delightfully fra- 

 grant. Calyx of 5 linear sepals, seated on a 

 short crown which terminates the ova- 

 rium, and dropping off shortly after the 

 expansion of the flowers. Corolla funnel- 

 shaped, the limb divided into 5 lobes; 

 stamens 5, inserted in the throat ; ovaries 

 slightly top-shaped, fleshy, covered with 

 a villous down, 2-celled. As this plant 

 was found by Dr. Wallich growing on ex- 

 posed hills in Nepal and Silhet, blossoming 

 all the year, there is no doubt that it 

 would stand on a conservative wall, with 

 very little protection during frost. It 

 was raised at Ashridge, from Nepal seed, 

 in 1816, and is kept there in a green- 

 house, in loam and peat, blossoming from 

 October to the end of January. It roots freely from cuttings taken off at a 

 joint, and is frequent in collections."
