A very beautiful species, with rich scarlet flowers. It is in the Epsom 

 Nursery, and at Mr. Lowe's at Clapton. " It is propagated by planting the 

 leaves in sand, and placing the pots containing them in a humid temperature. 

 The leaves, hkewise, if carefully fastened flatly on moist sand, and shaded from 

 solar influence, will sometimes protrude roots, and form young plants, from 

 many parts of the midrib." {Paxt. Mag. of Bot., Jan.)

This very beautiful tree, having proved quite hardy in the Jardin des Plantes 

 in Paris, will be a great addition to our shrubberies and ornamental planta- 

 tions. It will grow in any common garden soil, but it thrives best in one that 

 is dry, and somewhat loamy. {Ladies' Mag. of Gard., January.)
