branches, that expand on every fide, and 
fupport themfelves by tw-ining round what-

the branches, the leaves grow in pairs op- 
pofite each other,_ at equal diflances : ’they

white within. At the end of the branches 
the flowers grow, in the form of pipes 
bending in a manner fomewhat fimilar to a 
crowm. The peculiar form of the leaf, an 
agreeable diverfity of colour, and the aro- 
matic odour it dil'penfes around the gardens 
it decorates, render the honeyfuckle one of 
the inolf dcfirable appendages to every fpot 
where the bounties of Flora are collected 
for human delight.
