We believe that this plant was firft raifed in this count 
from feed, from New South-Wales, at the Nurfery of Meffrs, 
Cuanpier and Buckixesam, (then Napigr and Cuanp: 
1x) Vauxhall-Road, from whence we received a flowering 
fpecimen in Auguft 1807. 
Our drawing was taken from a plant communicated by 
Meffrs. Loppices and Sons, the latter-end of July 1809. It 
js now not uncommon in feveral nurferies about town. __ 
Among the drawings of New-Holland plants.in Sir Josrpx 
» Banxs’s library, there is one of a Lorus with red flowers, and 
leaflets and ftipules very narrow and hairy. This was found in 
Thirfty Scund, juft within the tropics, between 22° and 23° 
fouth lat-.ude, and, though nearly allied, is undoubtedly a | 
diftin& {pecies from the one here figured. 
x» Propagated by feeds and by cuttings, and requires only 
proteétion from froft,
