 shoots, either in their own pots, or others placed for the purpose, in

 dry soil and sheltered situation, in the fronts of the clumps or 

 borders. 



The second affords variety in the stove; and the third is worthy 

 of a place in the greenhouse collection, for the beauty of its shining 

 green leaves.
