 GNIDIA IMBERBIS. ' 



Class. Order. 



OCTANDRIA MONOG YNIA. 



This is a native of the Cape of Good 

 Hope: it was introduced in 1792, and 

 flowers most part of the summer. Like 

 most of this family, the flowers are fragrant 

 in the night, but scarcely so at all in the 

 day-time. It requires the greenhouse, and 

 may be readily increased by cuttings. The 

 soil should be sandy peat.
