OCTANDRIA MONOGY NIA, 
This is a very dwarf kind : it is recorded 
to have been introduced from the Cape of 
Good Hope, in 1774. We recollect having 
first obtained it from our excellent friend, 
the late Mr. Donn, of Cambridge, who was 
particularly successful in its cultivation. 
It requires the usual greenhouse treat- 
‘ment, and flowers in May and June, fre- 
quently bearing seeds in this country; 
which is a favourable circumstance, as it is 
very difficult to strike by cuttings.
