This fine species of Erica is one of the recent novelties raised from Cape seed; and being very distinct from any hitherto delineated, we have named it in honour of Miss Sainsbury, a great admirer of this beautiful tribe of plants. Our figure was drawn at the nursery of Mr. Rollinson of Lower Tooting, in September 1810.[Pg 219]
