 Amongst the most remarkable plants- that 

 have hitherto been discovered ranks this rare 

 species, of which living plants were brought 

 in 1844 from Sierra Leone, by Mr. Whit- 

 field. It forms a bush about as large as 

 a CamMlia; and some idea of the structure 

 of its flowers may be formed, when we state 

 that the species has been referred to the 

 natural order Passifloraceas by some botanists, 

 and to Cucwrbitacece by others. The propaga- 

 tion of this plant may be effected by cuttings, 

 and in other respects its treatment should 

 resemble that of GartMnia, and other first-class 

 stove plants. Syn. 1, Whitfieldii.

 Ranunculacece. A mixture of sandy loam and 

 peat suits this species, and cuttings of the 

 young wood will root readily in sand, under a 

 glass, in heat. Synonyme: 1, Atrdgene sey-

Naroissales, or Narcissal Alliance, in- 

 cludes, as at present constituted, six orders, of 

 which the Bromol-worts and Amaryllids may 

 be taken as examples. 



NARCfssus, Linn. From narke, stupor ; on 

 account of the effects produced by the smell 

 upon the nerves. Linn. 6, Or. 2, Nat. Or. 

 Amaryllidaceos. This is an old and very popu- 

 lar flower of great beauty, and some of the 

 species are highly fragrant. They are all of 

 veiy easy culture, growing well in any light 

 sandy soil, or in glasses of water, and in- 

 creased by offsets from the bulbs. N. posticus, 

 and one or two more, are well known to be 

 emetic. Synonymes; 1, radiiflorus ; 2, tridn-
