20 Alpine Plants. 
Anemonopsis macrophylla (Japan). 
A striking foliage plant, which should be planted 
on the flat by the side of a bog, in shade, in equal 
parts of strong loam, leaf-mould, and peat. In 
winter mark the site, as the crowns are very easily 
displaced. 
Anomatheca cruenta (Cape of Good Hope). 
Plant about 2in. deep in masses, on a well- 
drained sunny slope, where the bulbs will get 
thoroughly ripened in summer, in equal parts of 
sand and of poor loam. 
Anthemis Aizoon, see Achillea ageratifolia. 
Anthemis Biebersteiniana (Caucasus). 
A plant of very easy culture ; growing well in 
almost any position, in deep sandy loam and leaf- 
mould with a little gritstone added. 
Anthyllis montana and A. m. rubra (Alps.). 
Two very useful plants for dry sunny banks or 
in the clefts of rocks. Plant in limestone and good 
rough loam; sandstone will do if limestone cannot 
be obtained. An occasional top-dressing should be 
given. 
Antirrhinum Asarina (Italy). 
This is a useful species, as it will growin any 
dry part of the rockwork or rock-garden. If a little 
seed is put into small holes in the stone, or sown in 
the crannies on the south side of an old wall, it will 
germinate, take root and grow freely; or the same 
result, in the same situations, may be attained by 
placing a single plant in a hole made for the purpose, 
and allowing it to seed itself.
