Cult. This is an elegant genus of small greenhouse shrubs, 
which deserve to be cultivated by every lover of plants. They 
thrive best in sandy peat, and the pots should be well drained 
with potsherds. Cuttings, taken off at a joint, and planted in 
a pot of sand, with a bell-glass placed over them, and then set 
in a frame, will strike root with care, the glass should be taken 
off occasionally, to allow the cuttings to dry, otherwise they are 
liable to damp. .
