requires a dry sheltered situation, or to be planted against a wall. It will 
grow in any common soil, and is readily propagated by cuttings put in in 
autumn, and protected from the frost by a hand-glass. Price of plants, in 
the London nurseries, Is. 6d. each. A plant at Purser’s Cross is 12 ft. 
high and 15 ft. in diameter ; and it has frequently ripened seeds, from which 
young plants have been raised.

Biddlea salvifilia Lam.; Lantana salvifdlia Lin., Jac. Sc., 1. t. 28.5; is a native of the Cape of 
Good Hope, bearing some resemblance to the common species, but smaller in all its parts. It has 
been known to stand out for two or three years together against a wall, without any protection. 
B. paniculata Wall. is a native of Nepal, introduced in 1823, but not common in collections. 
B. saligna Willd., Jacq. Sc., 1. t.29., is a native of the Cape of Good Hope, with white flowers,

App. I. Half-hardy ligneous Plants of the Order Scrophularidcee. 
Halléria licida L., Bot. Mag., t. 1744., and our jig. 1125., is a shrub, a native of the Cape of Good 
Hope, with shining leaves, and scarlet flowers, which are produced from June to August. A plant has

Maurdndya semperfldrens Jacq., Bot. Mag., t. 460.; and M. Barclayana Bot. Reg., t.1108.; are 
Mexican climbers, well known for the beauty of their flowers ; and which, in warm situations, grow 
and flower freely against a wall in the open air, and may be protected during winter; or seeds, which 
they produce in abundance, may be sown early in the season in a hot-bed, and 
the plants brought forward in pots, and in due time turned out. 
Mémulus glutindsus Willd., Bot. Mag., t. 354, is an evergreen shrub, a native 
of California, with rich orange-coloured flowers, which would, in all probability, 
thrive against a conservative wall with very little protection. 
Anthocércis viscisa R. Br., Bot. Reg., t. 1624., is a native of New Holland, in- 
troduced in 1822. It is a handsome evergreen sbrub, with 
dark green leaves,and rather numerous, large, white flowers, 
which are produced in May and June. It is easily propa- 
gated by cuttings, on which account it well deserves a place 
in a warm sheltered border} during the summer season, or 
against a conservative wall. 
- Calceolaria in ag trey L., Bot. Reg., t. 744.; C. rugdsa 
Fl. Per., Hook. Ex. Fl.,29.; and C. séss ‘lis Hort., see our figs. 
1127, 1128.; and many other suffruticose hybrids; stand 
through the winter, as border shrubs, in many of the warmer 
parts of Devonshire and Cornwall ; and with due care, in the 
neighbourhood of London, they may be kept alive on a con- 1128 
servative wall.
