This little shrub from New Holland is both new and beautiful, well adapted to grace any collection, 

 being of easy culture, small in size, with abundance of brilliant little flowers growing from the axils 

 of every leaf. The specimen we have delineated was communicated to us by Mr, J. Milne, from the 

 Font Hill gardens, in fine bloom, in the month of April 1811.
