This is only a half-hardy border plant, requires to be 

 kept in pots, and nursed in a frame or house to get it to 

 flower before frost sets in. They are propagated by slips 

 taken off in March, by cuttings in May, or by layers in 

 August. The first make tall and strong plants, but the last 

 make the most handsome and bushy. Large flowers are 

 obtained by thinning the flower-buds, i. e. all the secon- 

 dary buds are pruned off. Such as flower in a cluster 

 should be thinned more sparingly; the Superb Cluster 

 Yellow, for instance, should be allowed to shew its cha- 

 racter. Gar. Mag.
