informs us that it makes a compact little bush, and produces
an abundance of bloom all the Summer; and from
a specimen kindly sent from his collection, our drawing
and description was taken; like its parent, its leaves are
very fragrant, having a scent like lemon, as have many others
of the small leaved sorts; and we are rather surprized that
those fragrant sorts, which form such pretty compact bushes,
are not more generally cultivated, particularly as they form
a contrast with the stronger growing red-flowering ones;
they are also very hardy, only requiring to be kept out of
the reach of frost in a light situation; any rich light soil
will suit them very well; and young cuttings, planted in
pots, and placed in a sheltered situation, will strike root
readily.
