PASSIFLORA FCETIDA. 
Class. Order, 
MONADELPHIA PENTANDRA. 
This is a curious, but not splendid sort : 
it is called by some annual or biennial, but 
we cultivated it for several years succes- 
sively. The leaves are rough, and have a 
very disagreeable smell. The flowers are 
wholly white in the inside, and greenish on 
the outside of the external petals. The 
ray is pure white. The involucre or calyx, 
as it is called by some, is a little like that 
of the West Indies, and must be kept in 
the stove, flowering in the latter part of 
summer, and increasing easily by cuttings, 
which should be potted in rich loam.
