CHOKIZEMA SPARTIOIDES. 



Class. Order. 



DEC A NOMA MONOG YN1A 



A native of New Holland : we raised it 

 from seeds in 1832, and it flowered in 

 abundance the following spring. The 

 plants were not more than two or three 

 inches high. The flowers are large, and 

 splendid in colour. We have kept it in 

 the greenhouse, potted in sandy peat earth. 

 Its minuteness has hitherto prevented us 

 from any attempts at propagating it, but 

 it will probably, like others of the same 

 genus, strike by cuttings.
