PREFACE.

The present taste for Botany, so general among all ranks, and the great encourage-ment given to works of merit in that fascinating science, first emboldened the Publisherof the present undertaking to solicit assistance from several distinguished Collectors ofPlants in the vicinity of the Metropolis. Having been at length enabled by theirliberality to bring forward, among the rest of his brethren, some of the efforts of bispencil, it would be dastardly in him not to own that his hopes of success overbalancehis fears; it now only remains with the Public at large to appreciate his labours, andbecome his best patrons. Anxious however for tame, rather t han inordinate profit, he

the descriptihis figures will be corrected, or often wholly drawn up, by a Botanist more learned .thahimself. It may not be improper to add a few words respecting that department ofthe work.

In all similar publications which have hitherto appeared, not even excepting the mostrespectable, a considerable portion of each page has been fitted with useless repetitionsof the classes, orders, and generic characters of the sexual system. No one whopretends to the least knowledge of the science is without the Genera Plantarum ofLinne, nor any one who is solicitous to gain deeper information, without that of Jussicu.The transcendant merit of the last author, however, having yet never been detailedamong us, the natural order to which he refers each genus here figured will always beinserted preceding its character

;this will be only given with the first species, making

such alterations, or remarks, as the investigation of it suggests. Botany, like' all othersciences, has lately made a rapid progress in improvement, and in no branch* so con-spicuously as that which relates to the affinities of genera; more might be said on thishead, if it were not already anticipated in a short but most energetic paragraph of theEdinburgh Review. With regard to the Plants themselves, such only as are new,uncommonly beautiful, or incompletely figured by others, will be selected ; and of these'

the harvest is abundant.

There is no figure of this species but Petiver's imperfect engraving; it was communicated byMessrs. Lee and Kennedy, whose liberality in giving specimens of their rarest plants to Botanistsdoes them so much honour. The outer bractes are disposed into a very regular rose, and con-stitute the chief beauty of the flower, which has no smell ; their margin is ciliated with veryshort white hairs. Corolla towards the top covered with brown hairs. Style long, and standingout from the centre towards the bractes. It flowers here, as at the Cape of Good Hope, from thelatter end of Spring to the middle of Summer, and may be propagated by cuttings planted in

sandy loam, under a bell glass, during the months of May and June.

This singular plant was sent into this country from Bengal by Dr. Roxburgh, and has lately

flowered in the stove of the Right Honorable Charles Grenville, at Paddington. It will soon bevery common, for young plants are produced in abundance from the crenatures of the leaves.

The Cotyledon Pinnata of Lamarck, in Encycl. Bot. v. 2. p. 141. which that author describes withyellow flowers, may possibly be another species; but though I have examined a specimen of this

also, gathered by Ant. Hove, a Polish Gardener, in the Island of Johanna, and sent in spirits toSir Joseph Banks, I cannot be absolutely certain about the matter, none of its flowers beingsufficiently advanced.

A beautiful dwarf species, resembling V. Vitis Ideea, from which however it may alwaysbe distinguished by the capitate stigma. The stems creep a little under the ground,* and arecovered with a short rough pubescence. Leaves sometimes oval, without any callous dots onthe under surface : midrib hairy on its upper surface. Flowers blush-coloured. Commonpeduncle very short. Calyx and Corolla generally five-cleft. Filaments 10, attached at

the very base to the corolla, but inserted like it, in the receptacle which surrounds the top ofthe fruit, having antheros shorter than in many others ami without a spur. It thrives best in

light sandy vegetable mould, among rocks, and othe; shrubs.

A low shrub, lately brought into this country from China, and now in flower in the stove ofthe Right Hon. Charles Greville. It appears to me a legitimate species, though very nearlyallied to the M. Fuscata of the Botanists' Repository, which I would distinguish by the follow-

ing name and character. M. Versicolor ; foliorum laminis obovato-lanceolatis : petulis inaequa-

libus, exterioribus pedunculo 4-plo longioribus : pericarpiorum stipite toto pubescente. Theflowers in both diffuse a similar fragrance, resembling at a distance that of a ripe apple, butwhen nearly approached more like a melon : and this odour I suspect proceeds from the glands•" itti which the petals abound, not from the anthers.

This plant was communicated by Messrs. Lee and Kennedy, and has been hitherto knownin their nursery by the name of Latifolium; but I dare not quote the plant Dr. Smith hastaken up under that title in the Annals of Botany as the same; for he describes the leaflets

" obovato-oblonga" and "venom." The young stem, if observed through a microscope, is

covered with dark green dots, of which I find no traces in the leaves. The calyx in a youngstate is very similar both in colour and shape to the future pod, so that the whole plant to a

careless observer has the appearance of being in fruit before it flowers. It may be propagatedby cuttings.

Professor Retzius first distinguished the species of this genus, but having only seen driedspecimens, his characters want much correction. Dr. Sims has given a very excellent descrip-tion ot that here figured, and not omitted a character of great importance, namely, the inser-tion of the filaments in the receptacle, which in the flowers he examined were only seven in

"'unber, but in ours constantly ten. The calyx is also five-cleft, not three-toothed, and pro-•ably much more hairy in \\ i kl specimens than those of our gardens. A large melliferous gland

This genus has no real affinity to.hi teiu, however similar in general appearance. It comes

nearei dtpkodehu than any other I have yet examined, having its few leaves obtusely mucro-

nated, with their margin dilated into a chaffy stipule, the receptacle articulated, and one

sessile seed near the centre of each ceil. The name, as we learn from Lobel, was given be-

fore his time by some of (he Montpellier Botanists; not that they supposed the plant totally

destitute of leaves, but from their being few and soon withered. It grows plentifully near

Castelnan, where I gathered it in the year 1786, and will thrive with us under any dry wall.

Nothing can be more faulty thanPoiret's description, though it appears he had the living plant

before him; he says, " Chaque fleur ofFre plusieurs Bales univalves, six Petales, Filamens

" attaches a l'orifice de la corolle, Fruit contenant un grand nombre de semences." Then, byway of corollary to the above, he adds, " Ce genre est si voisin des Juncus qu'il n'y a gueres

A most fragrant species, smelling like the Lily ofthe Valley, and communicated by E. Wood-

ford, Esq. It appears to me nearly allied to M. Edulis. Bot. Mag.f. 613. being equally rigid

with similar contorted branches or peduncles ; and I believe in both, flowering roots never pro-

duce any radical leaves. There is no pubescence in any part of the Herba, but the stem is

Though so different in the leaves, this shrub is undoubtedly of the same genus with that

Protea figured in the first number of this Work, and was likewise communicated by Messrs.

Lee and Kennedy. As it always has a stem, though a very short one, I very willingly

adopt their name. It reaches to about a foot in height in our gardens, sending out short de-

cumbent lateral branches, and not growing very rapidly. The leaves are often tinged with a

bright red near their base. Flowers without any smell ; the whole fasciculus of which is about

two inches' and a half in diameter when fully expanded, but not soshewy as in many others.

This shrub comes much nearer the frutescent Acanthi of Linne than any Ruellia in the struc-ture of the flower

; but it differs so materially even from them, as to constitute a new genus.I find from Dr. Roxburgh's Manuscripts, that it is common in the Pagoda Gardens of Bengal,where it grows to a pretty large size, flowering all the year round. The stem is round,'jointed, and finely pubescent with opposite branches. Petioles jointed at the base. Flowersin terminal spikes. Eractes ending in a sharp bristle, though the leaves are obtuse. Corollaof a dull orange colour: Tube very slender, dilated at the base, where it is smooth; fromthence pubescent especially on the inside below the anthers, and somewhat angular : middlesegment of the Limb narrowest.

The seeds of this Coronilla were sent to me by the indefatigable Botanist above mentioned in

the year 1798, soon after he had collected them." That it might not be lost among us, I com-

municated them to Messrs. Lee and Kennedy, by whose labours so many new plants are not

only introduced but increased in this country. I am surprised to find ,t omitted in Dote-

taine's rich and valuable Flora Allantica. No plant is more easy to cultivate in aj

for cuttings easily strike root, and its seeds ripen every year. The stem is nearly quite round

The Leaves vary'considerably in size; and the Flowers, like most of this genus, gradually

change their colour from a pale to a deeper purple.

The flowers are not without smell, as Dr. Smith relates, but have an agreeable perfume

;

and the detail he gave publicly, at the Royal Institution, of their descending under wa-

ter in the night,is equally erroneous. I am sorry to find that Botanist has taken offence at

the preface of this work ( 1): had I not long known him to be very sensitive, even before

I named a genus after him in the Hortus Kewensis, I should have said much more upon

the subject. Whether the passages he quotes contain any thing like exultation, and

. which of us treads most closely in the steps of the great Linne, I leave others to judge ;

but the next time he pays my labours a compliment, I beseech him not to do this at the

expence of a friend, whom he affects to value and respect so highly, as the author of the

Tne flowers of this and the following Castalia, which are both sacred plants in Iliu-

dostan, expand in our climate from the very first twilight to about 10 A. M. after

which they gradually close, being quite shut by noon. In this their odour is pungent

and vinous, but very different from that of the Hungarian Lotus.

I have only seenasingie specimen of this truly magnificent plant, which flowered

for the first time in this country in a large tub of water plunged in a common hotbed,

at J. Vere's, Esq. It appears from Dr. Roxburgh's valuable manuscripts, preserved in

Sir Joseph Banks'- lil ,-•:-.. that th« tlowers are sometimes 7 or 8 inches diameter and

inodorous. He regards this and the foregoingas varieties, but I am induced to believe

they are legitimate species for the following reasons : 1st. The leavesofthis are rounder

and often variegated with large deep red blots on their upper surface, but never spotted

more frequently cmtntemipted by transverse nerves till they reach the margin; 3dly,

species very difficult. Roth ihes;- Iliudostan plants an- vu-[] established in the princely

The specific characters and descriptions of Cavanilles seldom do him any credit, and respecting

this Dahlia he has blundered as usual; for its leaflets are neither more acuminated than those of

the others, nor smooth on their lower disk ; and the ligulated florets of the second variety are of a

deep marygold colour, not scarlet ; so that I do not wonder at Dr. Sims hesitating to quote him.

It is a more delicate species than the other: the stem frequently tinged with purple, quite

round, and covered with a fine glaucous dew: principal leaves bipinnated often with one or two

very small leaflets at the base of the partial petioles : Flowers a little fragrant, but when they

decay exhaling a stronger smell, more like that of Saffron. The earietj with yellow flowers has

only been lately introduced into this country from Madrid, by the Right Honble Lady Holland,

Autumn.

This species was communicated by Messrs. Lee and Kennedy, who received the seeds from

Lisbon; and I suspect it to be a Teneriffe plant, but this ia merely from its apparent affinity to

Convolvulus Giwiricns/s, nor am I yet certain if the stem is frutocent like that species. The

leaves are of a pale green colour, halberd shaped, and very hairy on both sides like a piece of

woollen cloth. Bractes narrow and attenuated. Calyx hairy, Corolla very pale purple with

the inside towards the base darker, its margin and the wedge-shaped folds of the limb pubescent.

This is unquestionably a very distinct species from the Sjjriacus of Linne, in which die leaves

are wedge-shaped at the base with much shorter petioles. It was sent to Mr. Hpoker by E.

Woodford, Esq. in whose stove it flowered during the months of Febuarif and March last.

Branches slender and while young pubescent Stipules very narrow and soon turning ash-

coloured. Petioles an inch long or more, rery slender and pubescent on their upper side.

Leaves palmate, the upper ones 3-iid, deeply toothed, acuminate, a little pubescent while young.

Flowers axillary, dark purple. Peduncles thicker and shorter than the Petioles, pubescent.

Bractes in the 3 flowers 1 saw 7, half an inch long and very narrow. Calyx longer than the

Bractes, divided to the middle into wedge-shaped segments. Corolla semidouble. It may easily

be propagated by cuttings.

The tuberous rooted Pelargoniums from the Cape of Good Hope, are so numerous and distinctin their habit, that it is greatly to be wished some character could be found to separate them as agenus. In every flower of the specimen of that now figured which I examined, the Antherswere persistent, not falling off soon after shedding their pollen as in most other Pelbut whether this circumstance is peculiar to the whole section, or even coastanl in tibia one specie!,I have not yethadan opportunity of ascertaining.

Floret fine Maii, Junto.

One of the rarest species in the English gardens, for which Mr. Hooker is also indebted to

E. Woodford, Esq. This does not grow so high as some of the others, seldom exceeding 25 or

30 feet in its native soil It was discovered by William Bartram on the high ridges, which sepa-

rate the waters of the Savannah river from those of the Tennessee, near Cascades and rivulets.

Stems several from one root, ash-coloured, round, and smooth while young: the branch.. CSMout irregtilarl> and an irn un jiI, i'orming a head more or less conical. Stipules attached lo the

petioles nearly their whole length. Leaves from 7 to 12 inches long, in a rich humid nil even

2 feet long, from 3 to 5 inches broad or more, frondose, which term I adopt from Jacquin to

express that the leaves are approximated near the extremities of the brain kes, being more thinly

scattered belo iole reddish, short and very slender: Lamina or expanded part

of the leaf light green on its upper surface, covered with a tine glaucous dew or meal

but without any pubescence, rhomboid-obovate with the base protruding into 2 cars, obtu

very entire, and a little waved. Flowers fragrant et t expand. Pcdun

in my specimen 2 inches long, marked with the scars of two gemmaceous bractes besides a thuu

still remaining close to the petals, smooth. Petals 3| to 4 inch* tag, white Mri

to a dull yellow, more or ten tinged with rod near the base, obovate and finely veined, which

last character is particularly conspicuous in dried specimens.

Besides thi-. two note Mtgnolnttwffl -ht over by

Mr. Lyon. One of the»e k the Pgramidatm of William Bartram, who discovered it on the

Pericarpium only about a quarter of an inch long before impregnation, afterwards swelling to

ir Hans Sloane in the work above quoted recommends a decoction of the hei

prescribed by the natives of the time for other

disorders, and Jacquin. found it sensibly pungent to the taste. The plant is particularly luxu-

riant at Isaac Swainson's, Esq. who communicated the specimen. Stem not annual, but in

time somewhat woody, hairy while young. Leaves bright green. Petiole long : Lamina oval-

lance-shaped, sharply serrated, the principal nerve towards the bottom I

where smooth. Flowers in a very long slender spike, without smell. Peduncle deeply hallowed

out for each flower, the cavity shining. Bracte closely prest to the calyx, mei

towards the base, and slightly torn or crenulate. Calyx only about two lines and a hah in

length, exceedingly comprest, four-toothed, the dorsal nerve terminating below the top.

Corolla Tiolet-blue, internally bearded as in C. Mutabilis. Filaments white. Anthers sulphur-

coloured. Stigma greenish, cap-shaped and smooth.

In a former number I have already separated this and several other genera from Pro-

ng in Roman type only such of their characters as cat

limits prescribed by LiNNEfor defining a genus; and I still purposely follow Jussieuin that respect, not only to show t h the first of those great men some-

1 his own "law, hut the real importance of the inflorescence. No one indeed

i genus from it alone if he can help it ; but when he cannot, let rumspeak the honest truth, a n forget its d ctates so far, as to call the same idemat one time a bracte, and at another a calyx. These remarks may serve as

to a very indefatigable botanist, who told me that two of my chars*and whose name is perpetuated by a eenus in this very order, which is distinguished

solely by its inflorescence.The shrub now figured is a male, and from the Hibbertian collection, where it flow-

«ed so luxuriantly, that by the ;specimen, a cloud of pollen filled

the conservatory: no wonder therefore if is a country where this may chance to tall

Floret apud nos versus finem Minn, Junio,

This is the handsomest species of the genus yet discovered, and one of those confounded in oui

gardens under the name of Protect Decora; but though male and female plants of all these are in

Mr. H ibb rut's culle.eMun, where tin drawing was made, I have I!'.- time now to study them.

In the whole »enus, the males are far more prolific and shewy than the females, as in the gene-

rality of animals; so we have here anotL o kingdoms.

Stem of our plant 5 feet high, round top: Brauchea robutt, not so much-subdivided as in the others. Leaves pale green, the larger ones 6 or 7 lines broad and two inches

long, almost sessile, scarcely twisted, spatulate-lanced, very entire, obtuse the p< int itself consisting.-.-'inches and a g long ai vellow colour, with the callosity of a reddish brown.

Flowers ditVu-i Fascicle or head of flowers from 1 inch and a \to 2 inches in diameter, hemispherical. Bractes which belong exclusively to the head imbricated

below the flow* K till they are 5 lines long by 3 broad, recurved at

the top, ovate-wedged ; between the flowers suddenly narrower till they are scarcely \ a line in

breadth but not shorter, incurved, linear-spatulate ; all of them obtusely mucronated, and shining

with the gum which exsudes from both surfaces. Torus between the bractes and (lowers pubescent.

Petals 6 or 7 I »w and coalescing into an arched tube to beyond their middle ;

from thence deep yellow and irregularly reclined; the uppermost flattish at the top; the other

three a little narrowei a; 1 approximated with hollowei tops; linear-patiilate, very entire, obtuse,

convex up to the anthers, then hollowish, smooth on both side-. Anther* about 2 lines long, some-

what arched, linear, r. tuse, smooth, discharging their pollen in part even before the p.

Nectaries ? pale vellow. :> Hues lonu, bristle shaped, smooth. Style pale yellow, gradual l\ atte-

nuated, finely emarginated, hairy near the bottom but without any rudiment of a pencarpium.

A most distinct and singular species from the collection of George Hibbert, Esq. If it is not

A fragrant species, diffusingtbe odour of the Persian Iris, and I believe first introduced by George

Hibbert, Esq. for I saw it at Clapham many years ago. The gardener who then had the care of

his collection took it for a Buibonia, some of the species of which genus it resemble^ in habit far

more than Buxus ; but all the plants of this Natural Order may be gem :

not in (lower, by the toughness of their bark, and even the young cuticle does not readily separate

upon attempting to pull off a leaf..

This shrub came up in the earth of some plants sent from Canton to the Rt. Hon. CharlesGreville. Specimens in .ruit are preserved in Sir Joseph Banks's Herbarium, which -hew that

it constitutes a 'ithus and Nauclea. In the former, the Stipules are

wedge-shaped, and irregularly jagged with black callous points : the fruit is 2-locular, (for the 4-lo-

cular fruits described by Gartner are only two grown together) with a 2-lamellar dissepiment, and

solitary seed in each cell. In all the Naucleas I have examined, the stipules are entire, and more or

In the Hookera Pukhella now figured, which flowered last May in the collection oWilliams. Esq. at Mill Hill, a specimen of which was examined both by Sir Joseph BDryander, and Mr. Brown, the flowers are 6-androus ; but as the tltenwte lilamei
