Description
Among the new plants discovered by mr. Croom, and communicated to me, are a beau tiful evergreen Andromeda an arborescent Taxus, allied to T. Canadensis, but attaining a height of thirty feet; a noble new genus of Coniferae with the foliage of Taxus and a fruit as large as a nutmeg, which Dr. Arnott will shortly publish under the name of Torreya; and a very distinct new genus, to which I have given the name of Croomia, in honour of my departed friend.
