This plant, which recedes very much in habit from the 
species of Chorizema previously published, has been named 
by Mr. Brown in honour of Francis Henchman, Esq., a 
very successful importer of New Holland plants, for whom 
the present subject was collected by Mr. William Baxter, 
at the same place and time as the Lechenaultia formosa 
formerly figured at folio 916 of this work.
