AMORPHA PUBESCENS, 
Class. Order. 
DIADELPHIA DECANDRIA. 
A native of Carolina and Georgia, in dry 
sandy fields, growing to two or three feet 
high. It is the A. pumila of Michaux, and 
A. herbacea of Walter. It flowered freely 
with us in the month of September, and was 
received from our kind friend Dr. Wray, of 
Augusta. 
The stems decay nearly to the root in 
winter, and the whole plant is rather tender, 
sek a little shelter in that season. 
il should be sandy peat, and it may 
be ities by cuttings of the roots.
