It is a half-hardy plant, requiring in the winter no pro- 

 tection beyond a cold frame, or even a roof that extends 

 over the border in which it is planted. Flowers all the 

 summer long. 



Found in various parts of Chile. We have it from 

 Cumbre, a pass in the Andes, from Mr. M'Rae, and from 

 the neighbourhood of Valparaiso, where it is common, ac- 

 cording to Mr. Bridges, whose No. 89 it is.
