Class. Order. 
HEXANDRIA MONOGYNIA. 
A native of the West Coast of North 
America, brought to the Horticultural So- 
ciety by Mr. Douglas. It appears to differ 
from the fascicularis which is from Cali- 
fornia. The plant is more erect, and the 
heads of flowers more compact ; the leaves 
are larger and less sinuate. We have kept 
it in a greenhouse, but it will probably bear 
the cold of our winters out of doors. It 
may be increased, although with difficulty, 
by cuttings: layers will probably be a better 
mode: the soil should be peat aud loam.
