for conservatories, succeeding best in peat 

 earth, or light sandy loam ; cuttings taken 

 off, not too ripe, will root freely in sand, 

 under a glass. The hardy kinds, where the 

 soil will suit them, are well adapted for the 

 front of shrubberies, and require the same 

 kind of soil as the greenhouse species. It is 

 usual to increase them by layers ; but cuttings 

 root readily in sand, under a glass. All the 

 kinds may be raised from seeds. Synonymes :

 appearance of the' species of this genus. Linn. 

 17, Or. 4, Nat. Or. Fab&cece. Very elegant

 when in flower ; they attain the height of eight 

 or ten feet ; and grow well in an equal mixture 

 of loam, peat, and sand ; they do best "when 

 planted in the border of the conservatory, and 

 will also flourish against a south wall when 

 protected from frost and cold ; cuttings root in 

 the kind of soil recommended for growing 

 them when placed under a glass. Synonymes :
