A native of Virginia and Carolina, grow- 

 ing in swamps : it was introduced in 1/65, 

 and is tolerably hardy. We find it to grow 

 well, nailed to a wall in a sunny aspect, 



feet, and flowers very prettily in the latter 

 part of the summer and autumn. Seeds 

 have also been formed, but not matured 



It may be increased by layers, or by seeds 

 which must be obtained from its native 

 places of growth. The soil should be peat
