PASSIFLORA CCERULEO-RACEMOSA. 
Bue A : 
Class, Order. 
MONADELPHIA PENTANDRIA. 
In the Transactions of the Horticultural 
Society Conese an . oo account of it 
by our Sabine, accom- 
panied hy a figure, has been published) we 
learn that this, which is a hybrid plant, 
was raised by Mr. Milne, of Fulham, from 
a combination of Passiflora coerulea with 
racemosa. 
It is shewy, but we cannot go quite so 
far as Mr. Sabine in thinking that “ it has 
taken from each parent those properties of 
their respective flowers which conduce 
most to their beauty, and united them in 
itself,’ as in our opinion either of the pa- 
rents is more beautiful. 
We have hitherto kept it in the stove, but 
we are told that it is capable, among its 
other perfections, of enduring our winters 
unprotected, which will certainly add much 
toits value. It increases easily by cuttings, 
and thrives in any rich soil.
