TEMPLETONIA. 



Greenhouse shrubs or sub-shrubs (iml. Legumin- 

 osse). Propagation, by cuttings of the young 

 growths in, sand, under a bell-glass. Soil, sandy 

 loam and peat. 



Principal Species : 



retusa, 3', Mch., red or \vh. (jtyn. glauca). Coral 

 Bush. 



TENARIS. 



Greenhouse perennial herbs (prd. Asclepiadeai). 

 Propagation, by cuttings in April in sand, under a 

 bell-glass, in heat. Soil, sandy loam and fibrous 

 peat, with a few pieces of charcoal and a little 

 leaf soil. 



Principal Species : 



rostrata, 1 y, sum., wh., yel., pk. 



perfect flies to appear, and occasionally there are 

 two broods. The larval stage is that which does 

 the direct damage in most cases, and the larvro 

 vary a great deal in their habits. 



TEPHROSIA. 



Stove, greenhouse, or half-hardy herbs, sub- 

 shnibs, or shrubs (nrrl. Leguminosas), few of which 

 are of sufficient decorative value to be worth 

 cultivating in gardens. Propagation, by seeds in 

 heat, or by cuttings under a bell-glass. 



Principal Species : 



capensis, Jy., grh. sub- 



shr. , pur. 

 grandiflora, '!' , Je., grh., 



red (.<#. Galega grandi- 

 flora)* 

 virginiana, U', Je., lilf- 



hdy. per., cream, pur. 

 Other species are Candida, pallens, purpurea, and 

 Dinnata. Suberosa is now Mundulea suberosa. 



TEKMINALIA ANGUSTIFOLIA. 



TENTHREDINID^E. (SAWFOES.) 

 This section of Hymenoptera plays a somewhat 

 important part in gardens, and that a mischievous 

 one. A number of genera and many species are 

 included in the collective term Sawflies, and 

 among them they plague many cultivated plants, 

 from the highest forest tree to the lowliest herb. 

 Eriocampa, Lophyrus, Lyda, and Nematus are 

 typical genera, and information has been given 

 under these and other headings and also under the 

 titles of the plants attacked. The name Siiwlly 

 bears allusion to the modified ovipositor, which 

 resembles a minute saw with two blades. The 

 saws are strengthened with cross bars like the bars 

 of a file. The body is rather broad, and, unlike 

 most Hymenoptera, the passage between the 

 thorax and abdomen is not narrowed. The \\ inus 

 are usually transparent, and the mouths suited for 

 biting and cutting. From about the middle of 

 May to the end of July is the season for the 



Tetiagncharix (sef Biitomajmitt). 

 Tcnuria (of Sprengel, see llupleurum). 



TERMINALIA. 



Stove evergreen trees (ord. Combretacese) rarely 

 grown in gardens. Propagation,* by cuttings of 

 ripe wood in sand under a bell-glass. Soil, light 

 iibrous loam and peat, with coarse sand. 



Principal Species :

(w figure). 



Arjuiiii, 70', sum., grn. 

 bellerica, 20', My., grn., 



yel. 



Imceras, 30', sum., y*'l., 



wh. 



Oatuppa, '20', Je.. wli. 

 eli-gaiis (now Polyscias 



paniculata). 



TERNSTRCEMIA. 



Evergreen stove shrubs (nrd. Ternstroemiacea:). 

 Propagation, by cuttings of ripened growths, in 

 sandy peat, under a bell-glass. Soil, fibrous loam 

 and peat, with coarse sand.

brevities (wr elliptica). punctata, 6'. Jy.. grn. 



ulliptina, 6', Jy., wh. (.11/11. venosa, 6', Jy., wh. 



pedunculans).
