HELICHRY'SUM. (From helios, the 

 sun, and chrysos, gold, referring to the 

 beauty of the flowers. Nat. ord., Com- 

 posites [Asteraceee]. Linn., IQ-Synge- 

 nesia 2-Superflua. Allied to Aphelexis. ) 



Many may be raised from seed, others, such 

 as hardy and greenhouse herbaceous, by divi- 

 sion and cuttings, in spring, in sandy soil, 

 under a hand glass ; evergreen shrubs from the 

 Cape, if small side shoots are taken off when 

 getting firm at their base, will strike freely in 

 sandy, peaty soil, under a bell-glass ; peat and 

 loam, three of the former to one of the latter. 

 Temp, for greenhouse kinds, winter, 40 to 45. 

 Stcechas is the hardiest shrubby kind, flourish- 

 ing in a sheltered place in dry calcareous soil ; 

 Angustifolium, Congestium, and Fruticans, are 

 the next in point of hardiness, and probably 

 would do on a conservative wall.
