looking foliage, but does not flower until the plant be- 

 comes large ; colour white and light purple. 



Jacksonias. A genus consisting of five species. 

 The foliage is varied, and all natives of New South 

 Wales. /. scopdria is similar to a plant in our collec- 

 tions, called Vimenotria denudata. J. horrida, and /. reticu- 

 Idta, are the finest ; the small flowers come out of the 

 young shoots, are yellow and papilionaceous ; the pots 

 should be well drained. 



Kennedias, about nine species, all evergreen climbers, 

 of the easiest culture, and flower abundantly. K. mono- 

 phylla, blue flowered, and K. rubicunda, crimson flower- 

 ed, are common in our collections. K. prostrdta, (once 

 Glycine coccinea) one-flowered scarlet, and K. coccinea, 

 many flowered scarlet, are very pretty. K. Comptonidna 

 has splendid purple flowers, and K. inophylla is 

 thought the most superb. It is very rare, and we have 

 not seen it flower. They are large purple. The 

 pots should be well drained; and if the plants are 

 much fostered, they will not flower so well ; flowers are 

 either in racemose spikes, or solitary, which is rather 

 too much distinction for the same genus. 



Lambertias, four species of very fine plants, natives 

 of New Holland. Lt.formosa is the finest of the genus 

 that we have seen; flowers large and of a splendid rose 

 colour. L. echindta is said to be finer, but has not flower- 

 ed in cultivation. L. uniflora has single red flowers, and 

 L. inermis orange coloured. They are rare plants in 

 the collections on this side of the Atlantic. Drain the 

 pots well; the foliage is narrow, and of a hard dry nature. 



Lasiopbtahms, only two species. There were a few
