This is a low half shrubby plant, with 
elegantly pendulous branching spikes of 
small flowers. We raised it from seeds re- 
ceived in 1819 from our excellent friend 
Dr. Carey, of Serampore : according to his 
Hortus Bengalensis, it was introduced by 
Dr. F. Buchanan into the en garden 
in 180], and is a native of Nap 
cially if they originate in the elevated re- 
gions of that interesting country, whence 
new and valuable bo acquisitions 
may be daily looked for.
