Varieties. Many new varieties have been added since 
those enumerated in Vol. I. appeared, but the following 
selections include the best : 
ALBA MAGNA, pure white, with purplish-brown anthers, a lovely 
variety, free, and hardy; BARILLET DESCHAmps, large double 
flowers of a mauve colour, with yellow stamens; BEAUTY 
OF WORCESTER, bluish-violet, with conspicuous white stamens, 
very beautiful, hardy, and a continuous blossomer from July 
to October; BELLE OF WOKING, silvery-grey, large double 
flowers; COUNTESS OF LOVELACE, bluish-lilac (Fig. 264) ; 
DUCHESS OF TECK, pure white, shaded with mauve on 
first opening; EDOUARD DESPOSSE, deep mauve, with red 
anthers, large, free, and fine; GLOIRE DE ST. JULIEN, white, 
flushed with mauve, large, and free; LA FRANCE, deep violet- 
purple, remarkably free and good ; PRINCESS BEATRICE, silvery- 
lilac, of great size and substance, very fine, June to October ; 
REINE BLANCHE, light mauve, excellent for bedding; SmitH’s 
SNOW-WHITE JACKMANII, pure white, constant blossomer from 
July to October. 
CLEOME. Bentham and Hooker include Peritoma 
(p. 30, Vol. III.) under this genus. Several species formerly 
included here are now referred to Polanisia. 
CLEOPHORA. A synonym of Latania (which see). 
CLERODENDRON. Syn. dAgricolgza. Including 
Cyclonema. This genus comprises about seventy species, 
most of them broadly dispersed over the warmer regions of 
the globe ; a few are natives of America (mostly in the West 
Indies or Colombia), and one is broadly diffused over the 
maritime regions of tropical America. 
The hardy varieties of Clerodendron flourish in ordinary 
garden soil, but the best results are obtained when they are 
grown in a compost of rough peat and fibrous loam. A 
sunny spot sheltered from east winds and late spring frosts 
should be selected. During the growing season, and 
especially if the soil is naturally dry, copious supplies of 
water should be given to the plants. C. trichotomwm may 
be propagated by division of the roots, the thick, fleshy 
portions of which should be cut into short lengths and 
placed in pans of light soil in heat. 
To those described on pp. 341-2, Vol. I., the following 
should be added. They 1eqnire stove treatment. 
C. Balfouri (Balfour's). A variety of C. Thomsone. 
Cc. cephalanthum (flowers in heads). /. disposed in dense, 
terminal heads ; calyx purplish, large, five-lobed ; corolla creamy-
