 Bor6nia, Sims. In memory of Francis Boroni, 

 an Italian attendant of Dr. Sibthorp. Linn. 

 8, Or. 1, Nat. Or. Rutaccm. A very pretty 

 and interesting genus of New Holland plants. 

 The species flower remarkably free, and some 

 may be seen in bloom at almost any time of 

 the year. They grow best in sandy peat 

 mixed with a few broken shreds, and the pots, 

 which should not be large, must be judiciously 

 drained, as the plants are very liable to suffer 

 from over watering. Cuttings taken at a joint, 

 planted in sand, and placed under a glass in a 

 frame, observing to dry up the damp now and 

 then, will, if carefully tended, make roots.

 placed in heat strike readily.

BossiAa, Tentenat. In honour of M. Bossieu 

 Lamartiniere, a French botanist, who accom- 

 panied the unfortunate La Peyrouse round the 

 world. Linn. 16, Or. 6, Nat. Or. Fabacece. 

 The species are neat, elegant plants when in 

 flower, and will thrive best in a mixture of 

 turf, loam, peat, and sand ; but care should be 

 taken that the pots are well drained, as no- 

 thing injures them sooner than too much 

 water. Cuttings of the half-ripened wood will 

 strike if planted in a pot of sand under a glass.
