“ Diemen's Island, Dryandra has hitherto been observed
only on that part of the South coast called Lewin's Land
where, however, its species are nearly as numerous and
abundant as those of Banksia itself." D. armata was dis-
covered by that gentleman in the country just mentioned,
and from seeds sent from thence by the late Mr. Fraser,
plants have been raised in the Glasgow Botanic Garden,
which flowered in February, 1833.
