JUSTICIA. 



Botanists have merged most of this genus (m-d. 

 Acanthacea)) into Jacobinia. The genus comprises 

 annuals, biennials, and herbaceous and shrubby 

 perennials, all requiring warm greenhouse or stove 

 treatment. The annuals and biennials, which are 

 not much grown, can be raised froci seeds, and 

 the others from cuttings in very sandy soil in heat. 

 A constant succession of young plants should be 

 maintained. Soil, peat and loam, with sharp

K^EMPFERIA. 



Ornamental, herbaceous perennials (ord. Scita- 

 mineie), requiring stove culture. They have large 

 or small, rather fleshy, oval or roundish leaves, 

 springing from a tuberous rootstock, and produce 

 terminal spikes of flowers during summer on stout, 

 leafy stems. Careful division is a good means of 

 increase at the time of potting in spring. Well- 

 drained pots should always be provided, and a 

 light mixture of two parts fibrous peat, one part 

 fibrous loam, with one part of chopped sphagnum 

 and charcoal, and a fair quantity of sand, given. 

 During the growing period a good supply of water 

 is necessary, checking the amount as the leaves 

 begin to turn yellow in autumn. During winter a 

 long rest must be given.
