ANDROMEDA CORIACEA ruoéra. 
Class. Order. 
DECANDRIA MONOGYNIA. 
A native of Carolina and Georgia, grow- 
ing in sandy forests: it is a moderate sized 
shrub, with fine evergreen glossy leaves, and 
produces its elegant flowers in the month 
of June. The present is a very remarkable 
and beautiful variety of it. 
It is almost too tender for our winters, 
except when very mild. It should there- 
fore have a little protection from frost, 
but will be found to thrive better planted 
in the full ground in sandy peat earth, than 
ina pot. It may be increased by layers or 
seeds.
