We received seeds of this shewy plant in 

 1829, from our kind friend Mr. G. Eglin- 

 ton, at Valparaiso. It flowered in April 

 1832, having been constantly preserved in 

 the greenhouse. Its height was about two 

 feet. It flourishes in light loam, and may 

 be increased by cuttings, or seeds, which 

 must be obtained from its native place, as 

 they do not ripen here.
