DECANDRIA MOXOG YN1A 



This is a native of New Holland : it has 

 been lately introduced, and flowered with 

 us in succession from June to August. It 

 appears to grow to three or four feet in 

 height, with a few strong branches, each 

 producing a head of flowers. It requires 

 the greenhouse or conservatory, and is rea- 

 dily propagated by cuttings. The soil 

 should be loam and peat.
