No. 654, 
POTENT ILLA LUPINOIDES. 
Class, Order, 
ICOSANDRIA POLYGYNIA. 
A native of the Alps of Switzerland and 
Dauphiny. It is a low herbaceous plant 
with neat small leaves and pretty flowers, 
which come forth in the month of May, and 
often continue the greater part of the sum- 
mer successively. 
It is very hardy, and may be kept either 
in a pot or planted in the ground in good 
loam. It admits of being increased occa- 
sionally by dividing the roots, which should 
be done in the spring.
