Class. Order. 
POLYANDRIA POLYGYNIA. 
A native of Hungary; introduced about 
the year 1800, and is yet very rare. It is 
a hardy perennial, and may be occasion- 
ally increased by dividing the roots in the 
autumn or spring. 
The soil should be rich loam, and like 
most others of this numerous genus, it loves 
moisture. In size it is quite a dwarf, rarely 
exceeding six or eight inches in height, and 
forming a pleasing variety among other 
little Alpine plants: it usually produces its 
flowers in the month of May.
