YELLOW FRAGILE FLOWER. 
handsome flower is a native of New- 
South Wales, where the original drawing was 
made of the natural size, being somewhat 
more than twice as large as we have repre- 
sented it in the annexed figure. ■ 
All the information which we have received 
is, that it is a very humble flower, and fouiid 
plentifully in sandy or rocky situations j and^ 
that it is so excessively tender in the yellow 
leaves, as to fall ofF almost constantly on rc» 
moval. ' 
To this last circumstance, it obviously owes 
the name by which we have distinguished it. 
In this property, however, it only resembles 
many known common European flowers •, 
and, among others, the large common But- 
terflower; to which it is in other respe6ls 
somewhat similar, though certainly a more 
grand and beautiful plant.
