first brought to this country by Mr. 

 Douglas, the collector to the Horticul- 

 tural Society, at whose garden it was 

 raised, and kindly communicated to us. 

 [t has grown freely, making shoots in one 

 summer nearly two feet in length, and seems 

 as if it would form a pretty large bush. 

 Its beautiful flowers came out in profusion 

 with the leaves in the month of April: we 

 are not acquainted with the fruit. 



It appears to be exceedingly hardy and 

 readily cultivated, and may be increased by 

 layers or cuttings : should be planted in 

 rich loamy soil.
