HIPPOBRO'MUS. (Derived from hippos, a horse, and 

 bromos, food. Nat. ord. Sapindaceae.)

 with gentle heat. Fibrous loam, with a little peat and 

 sand.

 seed-pod. Nat. ord. Leguminous Plants [Leguminosae]. 

 Linn. ij-Diadelphia, ^.-Decandria.) 



Hardy pea-blossomed, yellow-flowered plants. The 

 annuals merely require sowing in the open border, in 

 March or April ; the herbaceous trailers require dividing 

 at a similar period. H. balca'rica is the only shrub ; it 

 resembles, and requires similar treatment to the Coronilla, 

 needing a cold pit or a greenhouse in winter.

The Manchineel or Manzanillo tree, with a poisonous 

 milky juice, but greatly exaggerated as to its virulent 

 nature. Cuttings in sand, in a close case, with bottom- 

 heat. Fibrous loam, peat and plenty of sand.
