THUNBERGIA AURANTIACA DODDSII. 
The best soil is a mixture of equal parts of sandy loam and heath mould, with a 
little broken charcoal, or even ashes of burnt wood, and a portion of silver sand. 
Propagation is effected by cuttings of the half-ripened wood planted in sand 
under a glass, and placed in a brisk moist heat. 
Our drawing was made in September, from a specimen furnished by Mr. Dodds, 
the raiser of the plant. 
The generic name is given in honour of C. P. Thunberg, a celebrated Swedish 
botanist and traveller.
