This species is seldom healthy here, and difficult to increase by cuttings. Probably, it requires room to spread its roots, for encouraged at Clapham in this way, it throve exceedingly and perfected seeds. Stem cottony. Leaves 5 to 7 inches long, spatulated-lanceolate, spinulously serrated, very cottony underneath. Nerve depressed on the upper side. Stigma broadly club-shaped. As the leaves are not more bitten off at the end than in many others, I have retained its original name.
Dilleniæfolia;
5. B. caule tomentoso: foliis 5-9 pollices longis, obovatis, spinulose serratis, subtus tomentosis nervis valde prominentibus: stigmate angustissimo.

A tree 30 feet high or more, growing wild at some distance from Port Jackson, of which seeds have lately arrived. Leaves 5 to 9 inches long, obovate, spinulously serrated, cottony underneath with very prominent nerves. Stigma very narrow.
