OCTANDRIA MONOGYNIA, 
What can be more neat and pretty than 
the charming little plant before us? It surely 
was formed to delight the eye of the attentive 
observer. And there is a kind of nameless 
elegance about it, which renders its attrac- 
tion irresistible. As usual with this beautiful 
genus, it is from South Africa, of very mo- 
derate growth, and flowers in the spring, as 
soon as it is but two or three inches high. 
Its treatment is the same as the other heaths, 
loving plenty of air, and in warm weather a 
very good supply of water. The soil should 
be sandy peat, observing not to put the plant 
into too largea pot. It is propagated by 
cuttings.
