Stiff Freylinia. Shrub. 
Cult. Some of the species of this genus will survive in the 
open ground against a wall with a south or west aspect, with a 
little protection in winter. They will grow freely in any light 
rich soil, or a mixture of turfy loam and peat; and cuttings 
strike root readily under a hand-glass.

genus Halléria.) Link. Calyx small, 2-4-lobed, unequal, per- 
manent. Corolla large, funnel-shaped ; throat ventricose ; limb

Sharp. Stamens 4, didynamous. Fruit baccate, roundish, 
terminated by the style, 2-celled, many-seeded. Seeds fiat, 
roundish, winged.—A shrub with opposite, serrated, shining 
leaves. Pedicels axillary, aggregate.

Elliptic-leaved Halleria. Fl.? Clt. 1816. Shrub 4 to 6 
feet. 
Cult, These shrubs may be treated like other hardy green- 
house plants, by being housed with myrtles in the winter. A 
light rich earth is the best for them ; and cuttings root readily 
under a hand glass. They require to be exposed as much 
as possible to the air, and to have plenty of water given to 
them during summer. 
+ Genera probably belonging to the order, but are not suffi- 
ciently knomn. 
CVII. PI’KRIA (from zupoc, pikros, bitter; from the bitter- 
ness of the plant.) Lour. coch. p. 393. Pers. ench. 2. p. 165. 
Lin. syst. Didynamia, Angiospérmia. Calyx 4-leaved, de- 
ciduous, longer than the corolla; alternate leaves linear, and 
shorter. Corolla tubular, ringent, bilabiate; tube constricted 
in the middle: upper lip spatulate, emarginate : lower lip larger 
and trifid, with equal, roundish segments. Stamens 4, didyna- 
mous; the 2 longer filaments streaked by a papillose tube, and 
bearing l-celled anthers, and the two shorter ones bearing 2- 
celled, connected anthers. Berry ovate, 2-celled, many-seeded. 
—A. very bitter, medicinal plant, with ovate serrated leaves, and 
crowded flowers. :

CVIII. DIPLANTHERA (from érÀooc, diploos, double ; 
and avðnpa, anthera, an anther ; in reference to the cells of the 
anthers being distinct and diverging, therefore they appear 
double.) R. Br. prod. p. 548. : 
Lin. syst. Didyndmia, Angiospérmia. Calyx trifid ; upper 
segment entire: lateral ones bifid. Corolla bilabiate ; throat 
compressed; upper lip obcordate: lower one tripartite, with 
roundish lobes. Stamens 4, inserted in the bottom of the 
corolla, exserted, nearly equal, ascending ; cells of anthers dis- 
tinct, diverging, reflexed to the sides of the filaments in esti- 
vation. Ovarium 2-celled, many-seeded ; placentas 2, adnate 
in each cell. Stigma bilamellate. Pericarp unknown.—A mid- 
dle-sized tree, with a diffuse, irregular tufted top. Branches 
terete, tomentose. Leaves 4 in a whorl, large, petiolate, entire, 
biglandular above the base. Thyrse terminal, roundish, de- 
pressed. Partial peduncles verticillate; pedicels trichotomous. 
Flowers showy. Calyx half coloured. Corolla yellow. This 
genus is probably nearer allied to Halléria than to any other.
