PAXTON'S FLOWER GARDEN. 



" Luvungaluta J '). In cultivation, though attaining a height of nearly twenty feet, it hardly deserves to be called 

 scandent. Leaves alternate, remote, each with three leaflets. Stalks two to three inches long. Leaflets five to six inches 

 long, lanceolate, acuminate, entire, feather-veined, with clear transparent dots. Flowers axillary, in a dense short 

 raceme, much resembling those of the orange, and not less fragrant. The kind of soil is not important ; any light loam 

 suits it, so that it be not retentive of water. — Botanical Magazine, t. 4522.
