der unguis. Keel blunt, divided at the point, about the length 
of the wings, also eared near the base, of a pale yellow. Sta- 
mens 10, all distinct ; filaments smooth, unequal in length, 
ascending at the points, attached to the back of the anthers. 
Ovarium smooth and glossy, with a tuft of long white hairs at 
the point, and at the base of the Style, the upper part of which 
is smooth and ascending. Séigma a simple bluntish point. 
Our drawing of this handsome Shrub, was made in June 
last, at the Nursery of Mr. Mackay, from a fine bushy plant, 
about three feet in height, with long slender branches, that were 
entirely covered with flowers. It had been raised from seed sent 
by Mr. W. Baxter, who collected them in the neighbourhood of 
Sydney, in New South Wales. Being a free growing and abun- 
dant flowering plant, it will be very desirable for a Greenhouse 
or Conservatory, as it continues to produce its flowers in suc- 
cession the greater part of the Summer, and only needs protec- 
tion from frost; thriving well in a mixture of light turfy loam, 
peat, and sand; and young cuttings strike root freely, planted 
in-pots of sand, under bell-glasses, and placed on a shelf in the 
Greenhouse or propagating-house, requiring only to be shaded 
from the sun, and the glasses to be wiped occasionally of a 
morning, or they will be aptyto damp off; when they are pro- 
-perly rooted, they should be potted off in small pots, and placed 
_in aclose cold frame or hand-glass, till they begin to make 
fresh root, when they must be hardened to the air by degrees, 
giving a little at first, and increasing it every day.
