DIOSMA AMBIGUA, 
Class, Order. 
PENTANDRIA MONOGYNIA. 
We raised this sort from Cape seeds 
about the year 1815. It is a neat bushy 
growing shrub: the leaves have a strong 
balsamic odour, not very pleasant. The 
flowers are numerous, coming on t 
heads all over the plant: they have a lively 
appearance, and are produced in the spring. 
The plant requires to be kept in the 
greenhouse in winter: it may be increased 
freely by cuttings, and the soil should be 
sandy loam. ges
