while on the other hand the inconvenience of doing so must 
be manifest to every one, 
We were favoured by Miss Traill with the following 
memorandum, concerning the management of the plant. i 
«Some of the plants were placed in the open ground 
near the greenhouse; but they died down in the cold weather. 
They have since sprung up and attained the height of about 
three feet, and have borne leaves and flowers rather imper- 
fectly developed. The stove plants kept their leaves all the 
winter, and are now between five and six feet high. The 
plant will not flower in pots, as it has large and spreading 
roots, and reguires a constant supply of moisture.”
