 MIMULUS VARIEGATUS. 



Class. Order. 



DIDYNAMIA ANGIOSPERM1A 



A native of Chili, lately introduced into 

 France : we received it by the kindness of 

 our friend, M. Mirhel, of the Jardin du 

 Roi, at Paris. 



It flowers in \on% succession during" the 

 summer, and thrives best if the pot is 

 placed in a pan of water : it appears to bear 

 seeds freely, and being probably not long 

 lived, it is requisite to renew it frequently. 

 The soil should be light loam.
