HELIA'NTHUS. Sunflower. (From 

 helios, the sun, and anthos, a flower, in 

 reference to the opinion that the flowers 

 turn round with the sun. Nat. ord., 

 Composites [Asteraceee]. Linn., 19- 

 Synyenesia %-Superfa(a.} 



Hardy herbaceous plants, all yellow-flow- 

 ered ; well fitted for the back of flower-borders 

 and the front of shrubberies, where such modes 

 of planting prevail. The annuals, such as the 

 common Sunflower, should be sown in a slight 

 hot-bed, and afterwards transplanted ; the pe- 

 rennials must be divided in the spring ; com- 

 mon good soil ; a few of the tenderest want a 

 little protection in very cold and wet winters.
