ERICA SUAVEOLENS. 
Class. Order. 
OCTANDRIA MONOGYNIA. 
This is a native of the Cape of Good 
Hope, from which most productive birth- 
place of plants, it was introduced, about the 
year 1800, by Mr. Hibbert, from whom we 
received our first plant: it is of low growth, 
and flowers in the autumn. The treatment 
which it requires is in all respects the same 
as the other Heaths. It may be increased 
by cuttings but sparingly; must be pre- 
served in the greenhouse, and potted in 
light sandy peat. `
