Plants introduced, by Robert Barclay, Esq. 



at this time thirty spikes of flowers open and in bud. An 

 original plant of the latter has been in flower, without the 

 intermission of a single day, from June, 1825, up to this 

 time; it has at present between two and three hundred 

 flowers open, and there has been sometimes upwards of a 

 thousand blossoms open at one time ; it has also succeeded 

 well during the summer months planted out in the open bor- 

 der, having flowered freely, and was only cut off with the 

 Dahh'as, &c. by the frost of last month. 



In the green-house the Lechenaultm formosa (c), of which 

 there is a dark-flowered variety here, is in flower the greater 

 part of the year out of doors ; the Lupinus mutabilis (e) is 

 most conspicuous, being still in full bloom in the open border, 

 and against a south wall ; the Nuttallza digitata (d), Pentste- 

 mon digitalis (Jig. 82. f), and CEnothera speciosa (fig. 54. 

 p. 189.), are very showy, 

 and remain a loner time 



in bloom. 



There are many other 

 new plants in this gar* 

 den from different coun- 

 tries, particularly Mada- 

 gascar, and the east coast 

 of Africa, the names of 

 which are not yet ascer- 

 tained. A plant of Ery- 

 throlae'na conspicua, or 

 scarlet Mexican thistle 

 (g), introduced by Mr. Tate of Sloane Street, is just going out 

 of flower against a south wall, and two are coming into flower 

 in the open border, without having yet suffered from the late- 

 ness of the season or severity of the weather.
