No. 1712. 
RUELLIA SABINIANA. 
Class. Order. 
DIDYNAMIA ANGIOSPERMIA. 
This elegant plant is a native of what is 
called the Pundian Mountain, bordering on 
the district of Sylhet, in Northern India. 
It was named by Dr. Wallich in compli- 
ment to Joseph Sabine, Esq. who was for 
so many years the Honorary Secretary of 
the Horticultural Society. 
With us it flowers in April, and continues 
long in succession, although each flower 
lasts but a single day. It requires the 
stove, and will increase readily by cuttings : 
the soil should be light loam.
