MIMULUS ROSEUS. 



Class. Order. 



D1DYNAMIA ANGIOSPERM1A 



A native of Northern California, sent in 

 1831, by Mr. Douglas, to the Horticultural 

 Society : it is perennial, and flowers in 

 July and August, sometimes perfecting its 

 seeds here, by which, as also by cuttings, 

 this elegant plant will increase, and pro- 

 bably soon become universally diffused. 



It is well to set the pot in a pan of wa- 

 ter, which will make it grow and flower 

 much better : the soil should be light loam.
