HABRANTHUS ROBUSTUS. 
A Class. Order. 
HEXANDRIA MONOGY NIA. 
This is a native of Chili and Peru: it has 
been lately introduced into this country, 
with many more of this shewy class. 
With us it requires the protection of the 
greenhouse, and flowers in July and Au- 
gust very freely, perfecting its seeds, by 
which it may be extensively multiplied. It 
will also increase by offsets: the soil should 
be light loam.
