The leaves are intermediate, and so are the flowers.
We believe its anthers are always imperfect; they have
been so in all the specimens that we have examined.
We have named it in compliment to the gentleman
who raised it, and to whose liberality our collections
are indebted for numerous new and rare species of
plants that have been raised from the seeds obtained
by him from New Holland and other parts, and kindly
distributed to the collections of this countiy.
Our drawing was taken from a plant in the collection
of Robert H. Jenkinson, Esq. who received it
from Mr. Barnard. It thrives well in a mixture of
turfy loam, peat, and sand; and cuttings strike root
readily, if planted in pots and placed on a shelf in the
greenhouse.
