No. 526, 
TEMPLETONIA RETUSA, 
Class. Order. 
DIADELPHIA DECANDRIA. 
This is from the South West coast of 
New Holland, and is a beautiful shrubby 
plant, growing with us against the green- 
house back-wall to three or four feet in 
height. 
Its blossoms are produced in the month 
of May, thinly scattered about the plant: 
they have not yet ripened seed. 
It must be kept in the usual 
temperature during the winter season, and 
may be increased by cuttings. Sandy peat 
is the soil in which it seems to thrive the 
best.
