LEFrOSPERMUM AMBIGUUM. 



Class. Order. 



JCOSANDRIA MONOG YNIA. 



This is a native of New South Wales, 

 and was among the early introductions 

 from that productive country. It is some- 

 thing taller in its growth than most of the 

 species, and will attain the height of four 

 or five feet, being well furnished with pen- 

 dulous branches, which, loaded with flowers, 

 are very ornamental. The season of 

 flowering is June and July. 



It requires the greenhouse protection, 

 and is increased with facility by cuttings : 

 the soil should be loam and peat.
