We raised this in 1827 from seeds re- 

 ceived from New South Wales. Jt is a 

 delicate little plant, growing with few 

 slender branches to one or two feet in 

 height, and producing its pleasing flowers 

 in May. It raay be increased by cuttings 

 or seeds, and should be potted in sandy 

 peat earth, or planted in a conservatory, 

 req^uiring only greenhouse protection. 



" What can be imagined more grand 

 and substantial, than to contemplate the 

 great Creator of the universe, in His visi- 

 ble works ? To view, in this vast volume, 

 which lies always open, His Infinite Power, 

 Wisdom, and Goodness, and admire the 

 instances thereof, that appear always new 

 and astonishing?"
