CLETHRA COCKSCOMB. 2IJ 



Clethra. Ericacece. 



Propagated by seeds (as for Andromeda), divisions 

 and layers. Cuttings taken from the half-ripened wood 

 will root in gentle heat. 



Clianthus (Glory Pea, Parrot Beak). Leguminosce. 



C. Dampieri is best raised from seeds, which should 

 be sown singly in good-sized pots, when the necessity of 

 first shifting will be obviated. C. puniceus and others 

 from cuttings, which strike easily in sand in bottom heat. 



Clintoaia. Liliacece. 



Propagated by seeds, and by division of the root in 

 spring. 



Clitoria. Leguminosce. 



The best method of increasing is by seeds. Increased 

 also by cuttings of stubby side shoots, which will root in 

 sandy soil, in heat. 



Cliva, Imantophyllum. Amaryllidacece. 

 Propagated by seeds or divisions. 



Clove-tree. See Caryophyllus. 



Clusia (Balsam-tree). Guttiferce. 



Increased by cuttings of half-ripened shoots, which will 

 strike in sand, with bottom heat. 



Cob sea. Polemoniacece. 



Readily raised from fresh seed in spring, if a gentle bot- 

 tom heat is supplied. It is often said that the seeds must 

 be placed on edge, but this is a mistake. Exercise care 

 not to keep the seed soil too moist. From cuttings taken 

 when young, in spring, and inserted in pots of sandy soil, 

 placed in gentle bottom heat. 



Coccoloba (Seaside Grape). Polygonacece \ 



Propagated by seeds and by cuttings of the ripened 

 wood, with leaves entire, and taken off at a joint. These 

 will root freely in sand under glass. 



Cocculus, Wendlandia. Menispermacece . 



By seeds. By half-ripened cuttings of side shoots ; 

 these will root easily in spring or summer, if planted in 

 sand and placed in bottom heat, under glass. 



Cockscomb. See Celosia.
