Cult. The species are elegant when in blossom, and are of 
the most easy culture. They will grow in any common garden 
soil, and are easily increased by pieces of the roots, or by seeds. 
The C. soldanélla, a native ‘of the sea-shore, thrives best if 
watered with salted water now and then.

Cult. This isa beautiful plant when in blossom. The seeds 
of it should be raised on a hot bed in spring; and the plants, 
when of sufficient size, should be planted into separate pots, and 
trained to sticks, and then placed in a stove or greenhouse, 
where they will blossom, and ripen their seed. A few plants 
may be tried out in the open border, in a warm, sheltered 
situation.
