late, shining, strewed with a few short gland-like 5 905 
hairs. Racemes of flowers compound, alternately iY. 
sessile on the terminal branches. Flowers white, 
l-petaled, globular, contracted at the mouth. 
(Wats.) A desirable species, nearly allied to L. 
paniculata, which flowers in June and July, but 
which is less remarkable in point of floral beauty, 
than for its fine shining foliage. Unfortunately 
for this, and other species of Lyonia and An- 
drémeda, they are generally crowded together in ° 
masses, so that nothing is seen of any sort, but 
the points of its shoots struggling with those of 
others for light and air; whereas, were they 1 
planted singly, they would form objects so totally @> 
different, and of such superior beauty, as hardly to fi 
be recognised for the same species.

Spec. Char., §c. Densely villose with whitish hairs. Leaves deciduous, 
oblong or oblong ovate, blunt or acutish, often rusty, prominently veined ; 
the lateral margins revolute, entire, and rough. Flowers white, in a ter- 
minal leafly panicle. Corollas globose, hispid, or downy. (Don’s Mill, iii. 
p- 831.) A native of the lower counties of Virginia and Carolina. Intro- 
duced in 1806, and growing to the height of 3ft.; flowering in May and 
June. There are plants at Messrs, Loddiges’s.

Flowers numerous, small, white, disposed in ter-

grouped racemes. (Don’s Mill., iii. p. 831.) A 
native of North America; perhaps it is only a 
variety of L. paniculata. In British gardens, it 
grows to the height of 2 ft., flowering in July. 
The date of its introduction is uncertain; pro- 
bably in 1812, by Lyon.
