This is a native of Brazil, and was in- 

 troduced by the late Sir H. Chamberlayne 

 to the Horticultural Society, from whom 

 we received it. 



It grows about two feet high, covered 

 all over with long shaggy hairs, and flowers 

 for a considerable time in the beginning of 

 the summer- 

 It is needful to preserve it in the stove, 

 and it may be increased without difficulty 

 by cuttings, which should be planted in 

 loam and peat.
