A hardy chinese treelike shrub, said to have been intro- 
duced by Lord Coventry about 1763. We were favoured 
with the present specimen by Lady Aylesford; in whose col- 
lection at Stanmore it flowered this summer. It was also in 
flower at Messrs. Whitley and Co.’s at the Fulham nursery. 
The species is said by L’Heritier to be polygamous. 
We had no opportunity of describing the plant; but 
shall subjoin the account we find in Martyn’s edition of 
Miller’s Dictionary, and a version of Mr. Dryander’s excel- 
lent description of the flower taken from the Banksian ma- 
nuscripts. 
“Trunk arboreous, upright, round, smooth, branched, 
“ exceeding the height of a man. Branches scattered, 
“spreading, twisted, when young having dotted glands
