SWAIXSO'XIA, Nat. Ord. Legumino'sce. 



A genus of very elegant and beautiful free-flowering evergreen shrubs, producing a 

 fine effect when grown against pillars, &c., in a greenhouse or conservatory. It is also worthy 

 of note, that when this pretty shrub is cultivated in the open air in summer, its growth is more 

 compact and the colour of the flowers is deeper than when grown under glass; in winter it | 

 requires the protection of a cold frame. Plants raised from seed bloom the first season, but 

 not so prof usely as the second year; grow best in peat and loam.
