No. 1503. 
APHYLLANTHES MONSPELIENSIS. 
Class. Order. е 
HEXANDRIA MONOGYNIA. 
This is said to have been introduced in 
1791. It is a native of the South of 
France, also of the coast of Barbary, and the 
shores of the Dardanelles. 
It flowers in June with us, and must be 
protected in winter in a cold frame: the 
soil should be sandy loam. We have in- 
creased it now and then by separating the 
roots, which are small and fibrous.
