PENTANDRIA MONOGYNIA. 
A hardy greenhouse plant, bearing fine 
strong smooth leaves, and growing to a 
pretty good sized bush. It is a native of 
Madeira, and was introduced from thence 
into this country about the year 1787. 
The flowers appear about the month of 
June, at the ends of the branches, in heads 
of from one to six or seven: they are deli- 
eately fragrant. 
It may be propagated by layers, which 
usually require two years to root sulil- 
ciently to be taken off: they should be 
potted in a soil composed of half loam and 
half peat.
