 fitting clofe to the branches; but thofe near the ends 

 of the branches, are joined, forming fometimes a 

 large fomewhat quadrangular leaf, but moftly a 

 fmaller concave oval one. The flowers are produced

 ders. The lower leaves in warm fituations are ever-

 of the former, of a bright red on their outfides and
