No. 1032. 
GOODENIA GRACILIS. 
Class. Order. 
PENTANDRIA MONOG Y NIA. 
This genus was named by Sir J. Smith, 
in honour of the Right Rev. S. Goodenough, 
Bishop of Carlisle, Vice-president of the 
Linnean Society, a botanist eminently 
skilled in some of the more abstruse parts 
of the science. Many species have been 
discovered by Mr. Brown, in New Holland, 
although but a small portion of them have 
yet been introduced. The present has 
lately been brought over: it has a peren- 
nial root, and flowers during the summer 
months : the stems are from one to two 
feet in height. It requires the greenhouse, 
and should be potted in peat and loam.
