 (('. Mrs. Moon-. Hort.), 8-9 in. across, sepals rather narrow,

 Jackman (('. velntina-purpurea, Hort.), fls. 4-6 in. across, usu-

DD. Herbaceous, erect. 



T.I. Stanley!, Hook. (C. Stanley ana, Hort.). Erect, 

 robust herbs. ;{ ft. high : Ivs. biternate ; Ifts. sessile or 

 petioled, variable in size, cuneate, silky : fls. 1-3 in. 

 ucn>^. white to piuk-purple; sepals becoming widely ex- 

 panded; stamens yellow; styles becoming very plumose, 

 white. July-Oct. "Transvaal. Int. 1893. B.M. 7166. Gn. 

 39:789. G* F. 3:513. G.C. III. 8: 327. Suitable for 

 greenhouse culture ; in the northern states it is apt to 

 winter-kill if left unprotected. 



OOP. Fls. on the year-old ripened wood, appearing in 

 late winter, spring, or early summer. 

 D. Sepals more than 4, usually 6-9. 



14. caerulea, Lindl. (C. patens, Morr. & Decne. C. azu-. 

 rea, Hort., ex. Turcz.). Taller and more slender, and 

 Ifts. smaller and narrower than C. lanuginosa : fls. 

 spreading; sepals about 8, rather narrow, delicate lilac;

 3. Lav. 2 and 3. B.R.23:1955. P.M. 4:193. B. 3:126.- 

 Should be grown on a northern exposure to preserve the 

 color of the flowers. It is almost as prolific as C. lanugi- 

 nosa in producing garden varieties and hybrids, and it 

 is the most likely of all to produce double-flowered forms. 



Var. grandifldra, Hook. (C. azurea, var. grandifldra t 

 Hort. ) . Fls. larger than the type. B.M. 3983. 



Var. Standishi, Moore (C. Stdndishi, Hort.). Fls. 

 about 5 in. across ; sepals light purple, of metallic 

 luster. A fine variety from Japanese gardens. 



The following other garden varieties : 



Mrs. James Baker (C. Mrs. James Baker, Hort.). Sepals 

 nearly white, ribbed with dark carmine, 



Miss Bateman, Noble (C. Miss Bateman, Hort.). Fls. more 

 compact than the type, 6 in. across; sepals ovate, shortly acumi- 

 nate, pure white, with cream-colored bars ; anthers brown. 

 Probably of hybrid origin ; allied to var. Standishi. 



Stella, Jackman (C. Stella, Hort.). Fls. not so large as the 

 last ; sepals deep mauve, with a red bar down the center of each. 

 F.S. 22: 2341. 



Amalia, Siebold (C. Amalia, Hort. ) . Sepals 6 or more, oblong- 

 lanceolate, light lilac. From Japanese, gardens.., F.S. 10:1051. 



Lord Lanesborough, Noble (C. Lord Lanesborough, Hort.). 

 Sepals bluish lilac, each with a metallic purple bar. A good va- 

 riety to gradually force to blossom in the greenhouse by March. 



Lady Lanesborough. Noble (C. Lady Lanesborough, Hort.). 

 Sepals silver-gray, the bar being lighter colored. It will blos- 

 som in March in the greenhouse. 



Marie, Simon-Louis (C. Marie, Hort.). Fls. darker than 

 the type. 



The Queen, Jackman (C. The Queen, Hort.). Fls. rather com- 

 pact, the sepals being broader than the type. 



John Murray, Jackman (C. John Murray, Hort.). Habit and 

 foliage bolder than the type: fls. somewhat later. Gn. 46: 970. 



Fair Rosamond, Jackman (C. Fair Rosamond, Hort. ) . Sepals 

 apiculate, broader than the type, and of the same color. F.S. 

 22:2342. 



Countess of Lovelace, Jackman (C. Countess of Lovelace, 

 Hort.). Fls. double, blue- violet ; sepals much imbricated. In 

 the second crop of blooms the fls. are single, as is often the case 

 in other double varieties. 



Albert Victor, Noble ( C. Albert Victor, Hort. ) . Fls. much like 

 the type, but large and more compact. Suitable for forcing 

 under glass. 



Duchess of Edinburgh, Jackman (C. Duchess of Edinburgh, 

 Hort. ) . Fls. double, white, strongly imbricated. 



Louis van Houtte, Hort. (C. Louis van Houtte, Hort.). Semi-

 low stamens. F.S. 11:1117. I.H. 1:21. 



monstrosa. Van Houtte (C. monstrosa, Hort.). Fls. semi- 

 double, pure white. F.S. 9: 960. 



Sophia, Siebold (C. Sophia, Hort.). Sepals deep lilac-purple 

 on the edges, with light green bars. F.S. 8: 852. I.H. 1:21. 

 B.H.1:97. 



DD. Sepals 4. 



15. montana, Buch.-Ham. (C. odordta, Hort., not 

 Wall.). A vigorous climber, often reaching a height of 

 15-20 ft. : Ivs. ternate,with oblong-acuminate cut-toothed 

 Ifts.: fls. several in each axil, following each other in 

 succession of time, resembling white anemone blossoms, 

 sweet-scented ; sepals 4, elliptic-oblong, 1 in. long, 

 spreading, becoming pink ; stamens conspicuous, yel- 

 low. May. Himalaya region. B. R. 26:53. M. & J. 8. 

 Gn. 49, p. 39; 51, p. 349. A. G. 19:391. R. H. 1856:161.- 

 The species prefers a mild climate. The section of 

 Clematises to which it belongs includes the evergreen 

 forms, such as C. cirrhdsa, Linn., of the Mediterranean 

 region. 



Var. grandifldra, Hort. Fls. 3-4 in. across. B.M. 4061. 



16. Pierdti, Miq. Closely allied to the last: Ivs, and 

 Ifts. shaggy-hairy, much toothed, veins prominent : fls. 

 small. Early summer. Japan. 



489. Clematis Jackmani. var. alba. 



17. indivisa,Willd. Much like C. montana : fls.white; 

 requires cool greenhouse culture, and is then very beau- 

 tiful : Ivs. evergreen. G. F. 6:167. A. F. 13:879. Gn. 

 53, p. 546. Indivlsa, var. lobdta, Hook., differs very 

 little from the type. B.M. 4398. R.H. 1853:241. Gn. 53 

 p. 547. F.S. 4:402.
