 Erythema, Richard. From erythros, red ; al- 

 luding to the colour of the flowers. Linn. 5, 

 Or. 1, Eat. Or. Gentianacece. The species of 

 this genus are pretty, but not easy of cultiva- 

 tion. The herbaceous species require an open, 

 loamy soil, and may be increased by divisions. 

 The annuals and biennials require sowing in 

 the open border, in autumn, or they will not 

 come up. Synonymes: 1, Ghirbnia Centau-

ErythrIna, Linn. From erythros, red ; in re- 

 ference to the colour of the flowers. Linn. 17. 

 Or. 4, Nat. Or. Fabaceoe. These are all splen- 

 did plants, with fine large leans, and beauti- 

 ful brilliant, scarlet, or red llowers ; the com- 

 post best suited for them is one part fresh 

 maiden loam, one part sandy peat, and one 

 part of horse-dung, well rotted and pulverised. 

 The whole should be well incorporated and 

 chopped, and also well exposed during 'frost in 

 winter. As soon as the, plants have done 

 growing, cut them down, and set them in a 

 cool greenhouse, where they may be kept 



quite dry till the end of November, when they 

 may be potted into fresh soil, and pots of a 

 proper size. When potted, water, and set 

 them in a house where the heat is about sixty 

 degrees, and about March they will flower in 

 perfection. When the plants are again out of 

 flower, cut them down, as before, to five or six 

 eyes, according to the strength of the stems ; 

 re-pot them, and place them in the stove until 

 they have taken root, and made shoots from 

 nine to twelve inches, when they must be re- 

 moved to a house of the temperature of from 

 fifty-five to sixty degrees, allowing them plenty 

 of light ; they must be frequently syringed, to 

 prevent the attacks of the red spider. Con- 

 tinue this treatment till they show flower, 

 then allow them plenty of air and moisture, 

 and they will flower freely again in July, after 

 which, it is advisable to give them their winter. 

 Cuttings taken off at a joint, without depriv- 

 ing them of their leaves, root readily in sand, 

 under a hand-glass, in a .moist heat. E. Crista- 

 gdlli, and B. laurifblia, will thrive and flower 

 freely in warm sheltered situations out of 

 doors ; in such situations, they are killed to 

 the stamp in winter unless they aTe cut down 

 to about four inches of the stem, and sheltered 

 by an inverted flower-pot. Synonymes : 1, E. 

 vclutina; 2, E. arborea. See also Euphorbia 

 Erythrlna and Piscidia Eryihrina.
