Хо. 1545. 
FUCHSIA MICROPHYLLA. 
Class. Order, 
‘OCTANDRIA MONOGYNIA. 
This distinct and pleasing species was 
first discovered by Humboldt, in Mexico, 
at a considerable elevation on a mountain. 
It has lately been introduced into this coun- 
try by Mr. Barclay, who was kind enough 
to communicate it to us. It grows very 
close and bushy. Its flowers come out 
during the latter parts of the summer and 
the autumn: though smaller than those 
of the other species, they make a beautiful 
appearance. The plants require the green- 
house: they are easily propagated by cut- 
tings, which should be potted in rich light 
soil.
