142 MISCELLANEOUS INTELLIGENCE. 



hoveaefolia ; Kpacris lavigata. covered with white blossoms ; Adenandra amoena ; 

 Daviesia saiigna ; and a variety of Hardenbergia mcnophylla. A Knightian 

 medal was awarded for the four 'first-named plants. From S. Rucker, Esq., was 

 a variety (?) of Anguloa Clowesii, having large yellow flowers richly spotted in 

 the interior with brown. This is a rare species of that hitherto almost unknown 

 genus. A Banksian medal was awarded for it. Mr. Carson, gardener to W. 

 Farmer, Esq., sent a variety of Epidendrum macrochilum roseum, having a fine 

 raceme of pale violet blossoms. A certificate was awarded for it. From Mr. 

 Clendenning. of Turnham Green, was a small plant of Pentas carnea, which is a 

 scarce greenhouse plant, from South Brazil, having pale green leaves and 

 delicate libic blossoms ; also an Indigofera, apparently incana, a plant with 

 trailing stems, covered with gray foliage, which contrasts well with the deep 

 purple flowers. Mr. W. P. Ayres, gardener to J. Cook, Esq., also sent Pentas 

 carnea, for which a certificate was awarded. From J. Allnutt, Esq., was a good 

 plant of Chorozema varium. Mr. Pawley, of Uromley, sent a Seedling Azalea, 

 named carminata, having large rather dull red blossoms. From Messrs. Veitch 

 and Son, of Exeter, was an Oxalis that was sent from Chili by their collector, 

 Mr. Lobb. It is new to gardens, and will, no doubt, be an acquisition, as it is 

 stated to be hardy, having survived all last winter, planted out on rockwork. 

 A certificate was awarded for it. Mr. Mountjoy, of Ealing, sent a Seedling 

 Calceolaria, considered to be an improvement on Lady Constable, two Seedling 

 Pansies (named Princess Alice and Prince of Wales), and a collection of Pansy 

 blooms. From Mr. Ellington, gardener to Sir P. Egerton, Bart., was a series of 

 flowers of Seedling Cacti, in which one, named Regalis, resembling Conway's 

 Giant, was a very large fine flower; another named Longissima, on account of 

 the length of the tube, was a flower of considerable size and beauty; and several 

 others gave great promise; — a certificate was awarded for these.
