No. 7: 
GNIDIA PINIFOLIA. 
Class. Order. 
OCTANDRIA MONOGYNIA. 
A native of the Cape, said to have been 
cultivated by Miller fifty years ago; but it 
has long been lost to our gardens, till intro- 
duced anew a few years since. It has never 
yet been very plentiful, and is a very neat 
and pleasing plant; seldom grows above one 
or two feet high, and flowers most abun- 
dantly, often twice in the year, spring and 
autumn, in which latter season our drawing 
was made. The blossoms are extremely 
fragrant in the evening. It thrives in sandy 
_ peat, and, in general, requires the same 
management as the Ericas, to which it is 
very nearly allied.
