Japan. Flowers yellow or red; sepals two; petals four; 
stamens numerous; peduncles elongated, solitary or sub- 
fasciculate, at length nodding. Radical leaves pinnatifid 
or absent; cauline ones few, alternate, or the floral ones 
nearly opposite, lobed or dissected. Two species have 
been introduced to this country. They thrive in any 
light garden soil. Propagation may be effected by seeds, 
sown in the open border, during April; or by divisions 
of the root. 
S. diphyllum (two-leaved).* Celandine Poppy. i. deep yellow, 
2in. broad; peduncles equalling the petioles. May. J. pale or 
glaucous beneath, om pers deeply pinnatifid into five or seven 
oblong, sinuate-lobed divisions ; radical leaves often with a pair 
of smaller and distinct leaflets. A. lft. North-west America,

a flower; alluding to the very long style). Pencil Flower. 
ORD. Leguminose. A genus comprising about fifteen 
species of stove or greenhouse, perennial herbs, natives 
of Asia, Africa, North America, and Brazil. Flowers 
yellow (or white’), variously disposed; calyx tube fili- 
form, with membranous lobes ; petals and stamens inserted 
at the apex of the tube; standard orbicular. Leaves 
pinnately trifoliolate, exstipellate; stipules adnate to the 
bases of the petioles. Several of the species have been 
introduced, but they are scarcely worthy of cultivation, 
except in botanical collections. 
STYLURUS. Included under Grevillea (which

STYPANDRA (from stype, tow, and aner, andros, 
an anther; alluding to the downy appearance of the

of greenhouse half-hardy, perennial herbs, with fibrous 
roots, natives of Australia. 
loose, terminal, dichotomous cyme; perianth at length 
deciduous, of six spreading segments, all equal or the 
inner ones broader; stamens six; pedicels filiform ; 
bracts minute or none, or the lower ones leaf-like in the 
leafy species. Leaves either all radical or distichously 
spreading on the stem. Stem erect or ascending, some- 
times woody at base. The species will succeed in an 
unheated pit or warm border outside, if protected in 
severe weather. A compost of sandy loam and peat is 
suited to their requirements. Increased by divisions. 
S. czespitosa (tufted). f. on erect pedicels, lin. to 2in. long,

the sheaths usually concealing the stem, erect or spreading, 
linear or lanceolate, usually din. to 4in., but sometimes 6in. to Sin.
