John Lindley, Edwards's Botanical Register — Appendix to the First Twenty-three Volumes…
“ Judging from the specimens hitherto received they must be among the most common plants; indeed this Colony seems to produce a greater proportion of species than any other country yet examined. In Brown's prodromus forty-six species only are named for all New Holland, if ten are added for those of other countries, we shall have only fifty-six; but I possess from Swan River alone at least forty well marked species, and there are some of Baron Hugel's with which I am unacquainted. By far the larger part of these are plants that it would be desirable to introduce into cultivation ”
