LIATRIS GRACILIS. 



Class. OrJer. 



SYNGENES1A uE QUA LIS, 



A native of Georgia : we received it in 

 1830 from our kind friend Dr. Wray, and 

 it flowered in October 1832. Elliott in- 

 forms us that it is found growing in dry 

 pine barrens. 



It is probably a little tender, therefore it 

 will be prudent to afford it the shelter of 

 a frame in winter. Like the other kinds, it 

 may be increased by dividing the root or by 

 seeds. The soil should be loam and peat.
