 species are robust enough to bear our winters 

 in the open air, but being rather tender, they 

 require to be placed in a sheltered situation, or 

 against a warm wall, and covered with mats 

 during winter ; cuttings root in sand, under 

 a glass. The stove species are low W. Indian 

 trees, and known there under the name of 

 bully-tree. They thrive well in loamy soil, 

 or loam and peat ; and cuttings will root, but 

 not freely, in sand under a hand-glass, being 

 well ripened before they are taken off. Syiw-
