ANDROMEDA CALYCULATA ventricosa. 
Class. Order. 
DECANDRIA MONOGYNIA. 
escore 
This is a native of Russia, one of the 
most hardy of our evergreen shrubs, and 
one of the very earliest flowering, being 
sometimes in full bloom in February or the 
beginning of March. 
It should be planted in a border of peat 
earth and loam. It may be increased by 
layers, which in two years acquire sufficient 
root to be removed with safety.
