4 T. nsu`ruĮm (Roxb. fl. ind. 2. p. 180.) plant suffruticose, 
hairy ; leaves on short petioles, lanceolate, entire, acuminated ; 
flowers axillary, sessile, much shorter than their numerous lan- 
ceolate bracteas ; berries 5-seeded. Y%.H. Native of Chitta-

Hairy Fever-wort. Pl. 2 to 3 feet? 
Cult. These species of Triósteum will grow in almost any 
kind of soil, although they prefer a peat or vegetable mould ; 
and they are easily increased by dividing at the root, or by seed, 
which generally ripen in abundance,

Cult. The species of Diervilla are well fitted for the front 
of shrubberies; and they are easily increased by cuttings put 
into the ground in autumn and spring; or by suckers, which rise 
from the roots in plenty.
