Хо. 1553. 
COMMELINA UNDULATA. 
Class, Order, 
TRIANDRIA MONOGYNIA. 
This plant is a native of Mexico: we 
raised it from seeds, with which we were 
presented by our excellent friend, Mr. 
Charles Stokes. It requires the greenhouse 
in winter. The colour of the flowers, which 
are produced in July and August, is ex- 
ceedingly beautiful. 
It will sometimes bear seed here, and 
may also be increased by separating the 
roots in the spring, before they begin to 
grow. "The soil should be rich loam.
