This is a native of New South Wales, 
where it was originally found by Sir Joseph 
anks. 
It was first raised in 1793, by the late 
Marchioness of Rockingham, who pos- 
sessed a very choice collection of plants at 
illingdon, and was a most kind and 
liberal promoter of botanical science. 
It is a handsome shrub, growing to the 
height of five or six feet, with many 
branches, and flowering during the greater 
part of the summer and autumn. It re- 
quires the shelter of a greenhouse in win- 
ter, and should be potted in loam and 
peat: by cuttings it is increased without 
diff 
eulty.
