aromatic oils and resins upon which the value of the wood depends. This plant is 
more ornamental than the last ; the flowers, although small, being from their colour 
more conspicuous. 
It only requires the temperature of the greenhouse, and to be potted or planted 
in a light soil, composed of peat, loam, and sand ; and cuttings of the half-ripened 
wood planted in pots of sand, and placed under a hand-glass in a moist heat, will
