STRUTH IOLA INCANA. 
Class. Order. 
TETRANDRIA | MONOGYNIA. 
This plant has been very lately introduced 
from the Cape of Good Hope: its delightful 
fragrance renders it a great acquisition. 
During the day-time it is almost scentless, 
but a little while before dark it begins to 
yield forth its perfume; and during the whole 
of the night is most delicious, partaking, in 
some degree, of the Heliotropium, but inde- 
scribably more delicate. One small plant 
will diffuse its odour to a very considerable 
distance. Others of this family possess 
qualities somewhat similar: but this far ex- 
ceeds the rest. It flowers very freely in 
Autumn, and is propagated by cuttings. Soil, 
sandy peat: requires the shelter of a green- 
house, and plenty of fresh air.
