A most elegant plant, imported by Mr. 

 Barclay, who kindly presented it to us. It 

 is a native of the island of Bourbon, on 

 first discovered by 



to July, growing from i 

 high : the leaves are of a strong evergreen 

 texture, and the flowers exceedingly beau- 

 tiful. It is preserved without difficulty in 

 the greenhouse, and may be raised from 

 seeds, which are perfected in this country. 

 The soil should be sandy peat.
