DECANDRIA MONOGYNIA. 
This is a native of Canada. It is a very 
dwarf bushy plant, seldom rising more than 
a few inches from the ground. Its fine heads 
of pure white flowers come forth in profu- 
"sion in the month of June. 
It is perfectly hardy, and should be 
planted in a border composed of peat earth 
and loam. It may be propagated by layers, 
which become sufficiently rooted in about 
two years.
