DODECANDRIA TRIGYNIA. 
This plant was cultivated by Miller in 
1781. It is a native of the Cape of Good 
Hope, and seldom grows above 6 or 8 inches 
high. It flowers for a considerable time in 
the autumnal months, admitting of ready 
increase by cuttings: the soil ought to be 
of a dry nature, such as sandy loam mixed 
with old mortar. In the winter seas: he 
plant should be kept in the pr ce

person attends wholly to their management 
himself. ey require little room and 
little care: they need hardly any water, 
especially in winter; and if kept from freez- 
ing, are, in general, not liable to be lost: in 
appearance no plants are more peculiar, 
and in form none are more curious: it is 
surprising that they are so very little cul- 
tivated.
