Sent by Mr. Drummond from Texas. In general habit, it 

 comes nearest to C. tinctoria and C. Axkinsonidna ; and is, per- 

 haps, intermediate between them and C. verticillata. It appears 

 to be annual or triennial, and flowers in the open border in the 

 autumn. {Bot. Mag., July.)

Kaised by Messrs. Lowe and Co., from seeds collected in 

 Georgia, United States, by Mr, Alexander Gordon, a zealous 

 botanical collector, to whom we are indebted for the elegant

 and produces abundance of beautiful scarlet and yellow flowers.

This species spreads closely over the surface of the soil : it 

 partakes of the perfumes of its congeners, and continues in 

 flower several weeks. It merits a place in every collection of 

 alpines, whether kept in pots, or cultivated in a compartment 

 adapted to the peculiar wants of this class of plants. {Bot. Gard., 



July.)
