JASMINUM PANICULATUM, 
Class. Order. 
DIANDRIA MONOG Y NIA. 
This is a native of China and India, and 
has been lately introduced. The leaves 
(although represented single and two toge- 
ther in our drawing, which was taken from 
a small specimen) are most usually ternate ; 
they are glossy, and of a thick consis- 
tence. The flowers are produced in a loose 
branching panicle: they are very fragrant, 
and as only a few open at a time, the whole 
continues a long time in beauty during the 
summer season. 
We have hitherto preserved the plant in 
the stove, but it is probable that it will (when 
become more naturalized) stand in the 
gre It propagates by cuttings, and 
the soil should be rich loam. 
We are led to consider it the paniculatum 
of Roxburgh, from his deseription of that 
plant in that interesting work the Flora 
Indica, edited by our valued friend Dr. Ca- ` 
rey, of Serampore, the first volume of which 
we have just had the pleasure of receiving.
