This is a native of New Holland. It was 

 reared from seeds which were presented to 

 us in 1829 by H. M. Dyer, Esq. The 

 plants, in two years, grew to the height of 

 two feet, and flowered in great abundance 

 in the month of March. 



It requires the protection of the green- 

 house, and should be potted in sandy peat 

 earth. It may be increased by cuttings.
