Class. Order. 
OCTANDRIA MONOGYNIA. 
This is an elegant little species, and is a 
native of the Cape of Good Hope. It was 
introduced by Mr. Hibbert, about 1802. It 
flowers during the spring mont the 
calyx is delicately fringed, but N so 
minute, this cannot be represented in the 
figure. 
It requires the usual care, and must be 
preserved in an airy greenhouse. It may 
be increased by cuttings, and the soil 
should be sandy peat.
