by cuttings, which are to be struck in heat ; about 75 degrees 

 bottom heat being required to do so successfully ; and plants 

 struck in this way, and gradually brought into a cooler tempe- 

 rature, will form desirable plants for decorative purposes, — in 

 fact, the beauty of the Dalechampia, great as it is, is equalled 

 by its exceeding usefulness for all such purposes; and we think 

 that Mr. Bull may safely be congratulated on having been the 

 means of introducing this very lovely Mexican plant to our 

 gardens.
