If the seeds are sown in autumn, or early in spring, the 

 young plants will flower beautifully during the ensuing 

 summer. It is so easily propagated by cuttings, that some 

 which were taken off, and inserted in silver sand, had strong 

 roots, and were ready for potting off in four days. 



The soil which seems to suit it best is a rich sandy loam, 

 but it will grow in any common garden soil. 



Like the other species it succeeds very well when planted 

 in the flower border in summer, and will form a very pretty 

 hedge if trained in the same manner as sweet peas. It will 

 continue to throw out its beautiful blossoms until destroyed 

 by frost.
