 .ARIA PLANTAGINEA. 



A native of Chili, first raised a short 

 time since at the Glasgow Botanic Garden, 

 whence we received it. The flowers were 

 produced in July and August: they are 

 very ornamental and lasting. It will pro- 

 bably ripen its seeds in this country, 

 without which there does not appear to be 

 much chance of increase. The soil should 

 be sandy peat, and in winter it requires 

 keeping in the greenhouse.
