 HOVEA LONGIFOLTA. 



A native of New South Wulo.inirrHliic-.l 

 » few years since. It flowers in March: 

 the blossoms are of a delicate pale blue, 

 and very pretty. It requires the greenhouse, 

 and has hitherto been only increased by 

 seed, which must be obtained from its 

 native place of growth, as it has not been 

 perfected in this country. The soil should 

 be sandy peat and loam.
